Article V Patriot
Convention of States volunteers are a force to be reckoned with.
This year in Virginia, our amazing supporters made over 10,000 calls in swing districts. That includes 7,485 "get-out-the-vote" calls along with 2,686 campaigning calls.
Convention of States Action volunteers made calls in four campaigns, three of which went to Republicans.
In total, six Republicans won races in which Convention of States patriots participated -- the exact number the GOP needed to flip the House of Delegates from blue to red.
As Convention of States Regional Director Dave Schneider pointed out in a recent article, this puts us in an excellent position to move the Convention of States Resolution forward!
It also goes to show how powerful the grassroots can be when they're motivated and united. Virginians sent a powerful message to the Biden administration, and liberty-minded patriots nationwide can send an even more powerful message to the "elites" in D.C.
If we can call and convene a Convention of States, we can propose constitutional amendments that limit federal power, kick out career politicians, and force Congress to be fiscally responsible.
Now more than ever, it's time to engage in your state. Virginians showed us what's possible -- now it's time to take it to the next level.
If you have yet to join the Convention of States movement and add your name to the most powerful grassroots movement in the country, what are you waiting for?

Petition your state legislator
Almost everyone knows that our federal government is on a dangerous course. The unsustainable debt combined with crushing regulations on states and businesses is a recipe for disaster.
What is less known is that the Founders gave state legislatures the power to act as a final check on abuses of power by Washington, DC. Article V of the U.S. Constitution authorizes the state legislatures to call a convention to proposing needed amendments to the Constitution. This process does not require the consent of the federal government in Washington DC.
I support Convention of States; a national movement to call a convention under Article V of the United States Constitution, restricted to proposing amendments that will impose fiscal restraints on the federal government, limit its power and jurisdiction, and impose term limits on its officials and members of Congress.
I want our state to be one of the necessary 34 states to pass a resolution calling for this kind of an Article V convention. You can find a copy of the model resolution and the Article V Pocket Guide (which explains the process and answers many questions) here:

I ask that you support Convention of States and consider becoming a co-sponsor. Please respond to my request by informing the national COS team of your position, or sending them any questions you may have:
info@conventionofstates.com or (540) 441-7227.
Thank you so much for your service to the people of our district.
Respectfully, [Your Name]
