Little Rock, AR, February 14, 2019 – Convention of States Action, the largest Article V grassroots organization in the country, is pleased to announce that today Arkansas became the 13th state to call for an Article V convention to propose constitutional amendments that impose fiscal restraints on Washington, limit its power and jurisdiction, and set term limits for federal officials.
I’m all for the stated goals, but does this pose the possibility of unintended consequences. Aren’t there inherent risks of opening up a convention to Amendments? Is the current political climate one in which the odds are favorable for positive change? Or are we as a nation at the point where it’s now or never?
