Article V, U.S. Constitution
Article V
The Congress, whenever two thirds of both houses shall deem it necessary, shall propose amendments to this Constitution, or, on the application of the legislatures of two thirds of the several states, shall call a convention for proposing amendments, which, in either case, shall be valid to all intents and purposes, as part of this Constitution, when ratified by the legislatures of three fourths of the several states, or by conventions in three fourths thereof, as the one or the other mode of ratification may be proposed by the Congress; provided that no amendment which may be made prior to the year one thousand eight hundred and eight shall in any manner affect the first and fourth clauses in the ninth section of the first article; and that no state, without its consent, shall be deprived of its equal suffrage in the Senate.

Another state is just one vote away from passing the Convention of States resolution.
On Friday, North Dakota joined Florida, Georgia, Alaska, Alabama, Indiana, Oklahoma, Arizona, Tennessee and Lousiana in banding together to take on the federal government.
Which state will be next?

Now George Soros is leading the charge against Convention of States.
North Dakota just became the tenth state to pass our critical legislation to call a state-led convention to propose amendments that limit the power of the federal government.
Our progress has caught the attention of several left-wing, anti-liberty, anti-Article V groups.
These groups are largely funded by anti-American, foreign-born billionaire George Soros. He’s given more than $9 million to organizations actively working to undermine our grassroots efforts.
Just recently, the Dallas Morning News, a left-leaning media source, printed a piece heavily quoting Common Cause Texas, a group that is well known to be funded by George Soros, to oppose the Article V movement.
This left-wing organization exposed how threatened they feel by our movement: “It’s a realistic possibility. It’s terrifying, but it is a realistic possibility”.
Why are they afraid? Because when we succeed in getting 34 states to pass our legislation, a convention will be called where the states can propose amendments to…
- Get the federal government out of our healthcare system.
- Impose term limits on Congress.
- Balance the budget.
- Mandate nationwide voter ID.
- Take back our education systems.
- Limit federal power.
Congress won’t take these actions. But a Convention of States can.
The Left understands that we could do away with Obamacare without Congress... and now they’re on the warpath for COS.
Now is our moment, but with $9 Million working against us, it’ll be an uphill battle.
tWe urgently need your support to fight George Soros’ anti-Convention of States campaign. A generous donor is ready to match every donation made online before April 18th - dollar for dollar.
The Above is by the Convention of States Team a group of hard working Americans that know there are problems and seek to remedy the situation legally. Many Americans are afraid and many think it is the end. But is it when people are working together on a plan of hope. Hopefully you will join us in the Convention of States movement.
Many people are afraid of:
- The deficit at $20 Trillion.
- The Backing of liabilities in the hundreds of trillions
- Surveillance over-reach
- Laws that have destroyed businesses and livelihoods
- Economic and social collapse
This the way to go no matter what side of the aisle you are on if you are a nationalist and demand the problems in the United States are handled legally and in accordance with the Constitution of the United States
I hope you join us and the ten states, so far and the twenty-seven with pending legislation, that have demanded by legislation a Convention of States that America may endure and continue to prosper. Had they done this there would have been no civil war. Let's do it now. Get and give some hope. Join the Convention of States

Thank you for your observations @jlufer, my dear friend, it is a growing leverage tool against the federal government which would not even begin the reign itself in without the participants of this action
