I’d suggest doing some research on your own then...

I have, and know that there is a ton of precedent and practice. The nuts and bolts of how it works includes Congress counting the applications. At any one time there can be and have been multiple seperate calls, and Congress has to track and group them. That is why the states passing calls spell out specific language to make it easier for Congress to count. The closer the language between the states are, the more likely that congress WILL call the COS. The more apart the language, the more likely Congress will ignore the calls, because it can easily consider them for separate conventions.

“Congress will ignore the calls, because it can easily consider them for separate conventions.”

I believe Mark spoke about this and said that is when the states will sue if they fail to act.
