Levin: To save America we must take the power out of Washington

Published in Blog on June 02, 2023 by Brianna Kraemer

The only way to fundamentally alter the trajectory of this country is by taking power away from the Washington swamp, Mark Levin proclaimed this week.

During his evening radio show, Levin insisted that despite convincing attempts to fix the federal government, Washington will never – and ultimately can never – fix Washington.

No matter the political side, any impact within the D.C. framework will never be enough. A genuine solution, however, lies in Article V of the Constitution.

"The reason why I support Convention of States is because I'm convinced that the only way to fundamentally alter the trajectory of this country is not watching TV and listening to the politicians or reading columns," he said. "It's by taking the power out of Washington. And we're already organized to fight this."

He brought a compelling argument to the table; as popular as Reagan was, he couldn't significantly cut the debt back in the 1980s when he won 59% of the vote. He won more electoral college votes than any president in American history, and still, he couldn't cut the debt "because the system in Washington is corrupt."

"It is institutionally and fundamentally built to do the opposite of what should be done."

If Reagan couldn't change the system as president, it's unlikely that any future president will be capable of bringing effective, long-lasting change.

Convention of States gives the states an opportunity to implement effective change by proposing amendments that can reduce the government's size, scope, and jurisdiction.

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: https://conventionofstates.com/handbook_pdf

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:
