Meckler: "If you don't join Convention of States, how else are you going to stop DC??"

Published in Blog on March 10, 2021 by Article V Patriot

On his most recent BattleCry episode (airing Sundays at 8pm ET on Facebook!), Mark Meckler asked a simple question: what are you going to do?

What are you going to do about the overreach and abuse from Washington, DC?

What are you going to do about Joe Biden's unconstitutional executive orders?

What are you going to do about a radical, corrupt Congress?

What are you going to do about the massive army of bureaucrats dead-set on controlling your life?

We can try to elect "good" or "better" politicians in 2022. We can lobby our representatives to stand firm against the radicalism that has taken over our nation's capital. But at the end of the day, we have only one truly effective option.

"Why is there so much activity around a Convention of States right now? Because if you look at Washington, D.C., what in the heck else are you going to do?" Mark asked. "If it's not Convention of States, what are you going to do, really? You have Marxists in control of the White House, the House, the Senate, the Deep State."

"We have to call a Convention of States."

A Convention of States can do what the federal government never will: limit the power, scope, and jurisdiction of Washington, D.C.

Article V allows the states to call a Convention of States to propose constitutional amendments. These amendments can tie the hands of tyrannical, Marxist politicians by limiting the topics on which they can legislate and spend money. Without the ability to control every area of American life, overreaching legislators and bureaucrats will be left with nothing but a small, narrow set of topics they can control.

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: 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:
