That’s all well and good but, in this “modern” era, (post-enlightenment) the only way this will work is if the State legislators (and the people who vote them into office) committed to ending their acceptance of the Federal government as a resolver of all things bad (nanny state federalism).
If you look at the re-districting referendum here in Michigan, you will see how such things are manipulated so that government is seen as the great problem fixer.
Redistricting for federal offices has no effect on state districts. Most people barely know who their state legislator is. When they actually take the time to call them, they often discover they are a neighbor or someone close to them. Far different than a bought and paid for stooge in DC.
The first state proposed amendment concerns a balanced budget. It is well-written. The people in the process are good people. If you like any of the conservatives on FR, you would probably like these state legislator folks even more.
