What you state is not an answer. It is the left wing quality of the legislatures of the states I named; i.e. California, Illinois etc. etc. You are delivering our Republic right into the hands of extreme leftists all for purposes of following some slogan.

There are more state legislature controlled by Republicans today that at any time in the last century.

I do not see doing nothing as a viable alternative. What is your plan to accomplish your objectives?

Any proposed amendment would still need ratification, which requires 3/4 State approval either in the Senate or in a separate ratification convention. (IIRC the only time the ratification convention was used was to repeal Prohibition.)
