If you've ever wondered how the Convention of States Resolution gets proposed in a state legislature, wonder no more!
In 49 states so far, a state legislator has agreed to champion the Article V Convention of States Resolution. These patriotic legislators understand the power granted to them under Article V, and they agree to shepherd the Resolution through the legislative process.
Other legislators usually join as co-sponsors, but one legislator accepts the responsibility of introducing the Resolution to the legislative body.
In Wyoming, that legislator was Senator Bo Biteman. Sen. Biteman rose to walk his colleagues through the Resolution and explain why he decided to sponsor it.
"We are on the wrong track, and this thing is not going to fix itself. Hiding from this problem is only going to make it worse. We can't do this to our children. We cannot let this country continue on this course to ruin. Our federal government is currently overstepping its boundaries," he said. "In order to restore federalism to this country, I believe an Article V Convention of States is the way to go. We have to do something. We cannot just sit here and keep kicking this can down the road."
