There are a lot of political messages coming out every day, as candidates gear up for the election in 2020.
Some people question if the Convention of States message will be lost in this media frenzy. While the COS message will have to compete with the political rhetoric, this is the best time to find out who will claim to support COS.
Many people are not fully aware of the purpose of Article V, which presents a challenge to the COS volunteers in Kansas. Election time also presents opportunities for Kansas volunteers to discuss a very important topic.
A crucially important constitutional issue and challenge to our very way of life is at stake. Congress has abdicated decisions through a series of failures to implement the will of the people, regardless of which political party is control.
Article V of the U.S. Constitution was written to give the states the ability to propose amendments to resolve these situations. Our Founding Fathers foresaw this day, having read accounts throughout history about government failures and successes.
The call for an Article V convention is the first important step. It takes an extraordinary amount of effort to attain this goal, but our organization is making steady progress as the public becomes aware that there is a solution as big as the problem.
The Founding Fathers knew power corrupts, and that was a risk that their contract with America would have to thwart. Article V is the very tool we are given by our U.S. Constitution to resolve longstanding grievances with our federal government.
We have momentum around the country and are moving in a positive direction. We need to keep up the pressure by informing others about what is at stake.
Do you know where your legislator stands on the Article V issue? Maybe we can help you ask, just visit Convention of States to find out more. We have many informative articles written by people just like you that make it easy to educate yourself and make an informed decision. If you have not yet signed the petition for COS, we strongly urge you to do so.
Remember, our organization is not a partisan group. Our volunteers include Democrats, Independents, and Republicans. We find common ground in our serious concerns with our federal government. Our volunteers are united in our belief that these concerns may only be resolved as a constitutional matter using the peaceful tools our Founding Fathers gave us.
