Introduced on Constitution Day this past September, the Article V Scholar Series is a set of short videos that explain the Article V process and answer objections, myths, and lies from opponents about an Article V convention and even the origin of the Constitution itself.
The Article V Scholar Series, produced by COSA Video Production Director Garrett Humbertson, runs through December 3. Each video runs no longer than eight minutes and is perfect for sharing with legislators, fellow volunteers, and people who are new to the movement or interested in joining.
Don't miss this series, which will rapidly help you become even more of an expert about Article V in particular and the Constitution in general.
To join the movement to call an Article V convention to make the ideas and concepts discussed in the Article V Scholar Series a reality, sign the petition below:

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]
