Many Americans are understandably discouraged by the presidential election. While President Trump's legal appeals aren't over, it's looking increasingly likely that Joe Biden will be our country's next president. Biden represents a return to "normal" in D.C., a status quo that We the People won't tolerate much longer.
But there is good news from the latest election. As Convention of States Action President Mark Meckler explained on a recent appearance on the Larry O'Connor Show, victories in state elections put us closer than ever to calling the first-ever Article V Convention of States.
"This election was an incredible victory for the things that you and I hold near and dear," he said. "We see this in state legislatures across the country. Over 126 seats so far flipped from blue to red in state legislatures. It was a wave."
A Convention of States is the only way to permanently change how Washington operates. President Trump shook things up for four years, but President Biden is set to undo all of his work. We need a better solution, and we can find it in Article V.
As Mark explained, Article V allows the states to call a convention for the purpose of proposing constitutional amendments (a Convention of States). These amendments can limit the power of the federal government, impose fiscal restraints on Congress, and mandate term limits for federal officials.
It's our last, best hope to save our republic from federal overreach and abuse. Millions of Americans have joined the cause, and 15 states have already passed the Convention of States Resolution. When 34 states pass it, a Convention of States will be triggered.
