Recent polling shows the support for banning abortion (with exceptions) and for a Trump-like plan on immigration both approach 2/3rds support from the American people.

I expect a balanced budget amendment could garner that kind of support as well.

The states as a whole are more conservative than the federal government. They should use their power to take back power grabs done by the executive branch and the Supreme Court.

Term limits too! That and a balanced budget amendment were both my desires years ago. What a difference we would have today had we had them all this time.

An Amendment created by the delegates of the Convention of States to repeal the 17th Amendment and return the Election of our Senators to the State Houses is mandatory IMHO to restore the balance of power to where the Founders intended...
