Constitutional clinic with Michael Farris

Published in Blog on February 28, 2024 by Matt May

Would you like to attend a master class about Article V at no cost?

At 8:00 p.m. EST on March 13, you will have an exclusive opportunity to sharpen your knowledge about Article V by watching the live premiere of the Convention of States Action (COSA) production entitled "The Case for Convention of States." 

This video event will feature COSA co-founder, senior advisor, and renowned constitutional attorney Michael Farris's testimony in favor of the Article V resolution before the Ohio House Government Oversight Committee on February 6, 2024. 

The one-hour stream highlights Dr. Farris’s opening statement to the committee, in addition to his answers to intricate, and even hostile questioning by members of the committee regarding how Article V came to be included in the Constitution, why an Article V convention is needed at this time in history, and why such a gathering poses no risks to the Constitution. 

Dr. Farris – and the Ohio COS team – answered skepticism and debunked common myths about an Article V convention. Chief among those myths is the persistent idea that a gathering to propose amendments to the Constitution will devolve into a "runaway convention" that will destroy the Constitution. Of course, nothing could be further from the truth.

Dr. Farris and company addressed such questions and speculation with good cheer and an articulate, thorough understanding of constitutional history and law, and the role of state legislatures and legislators in the process. 

This presentation neatly encapsulates the message that Dr. Farris, leadership, and grassroots have been conveying to legislatures across the country about an Article V convention, and we are excited to bring this engaging performance to you in cinematic format. 

“The Case for Convention of States'' premieres on March 13 at 8:00 p.m. EST and will feature a dynamic introduction delivered by COSA co-founder and president Mark Meckler. 

It is no exaggeration to say that it would be nearly impossible to find a more concise yet thorough primer about the history, operation, and necessity for an Article V convention than this production.
