Mark Meckler and Mark Levin reflect on the passing of Dr. Tom Coburn

This week we're remembering the amazing life and legacy of Dr. Tom Coburn.

Convention of States Action President Mark Meckler penned a touching tribute to America's last great statesman, and we explained Dr. Coburn's amazing work advocating for the Convention of States Project.

Yesterday Mark had the chance to appear on The Mark Levin show to further remember Dr. Coburn and how he first got involved with the Convention of States Project.

"The whole time I knew Tom, he was a man of principle and integrity," Mark said.

Dr. Coburn was never one to profit politically from any movement or organization. He intentionally shied away from aligning himself with the Tea Party, for example, not because he disagreed with principles of fiscal responsibility but because he didn't want to take advantage of a grassroots movement.

When it came to the Convention of States Project, he joined the movement because he believed in it -- not because he was compelled by the Project's leadership.

In fact, as Mark explains in the video below, we first found out that Dr. Coburn would be joining our cause from a Fox News segment.

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:

info@conventionofstates.com or (540) 441-7227.

Thank you so much for your service to the people of our district.

Respectfully, [Your Name]
