Unelected \\ bureaucrats in Washington, D.C. shouldn’t \\ be allowed to make sweeping decisions \\ that impact millions of Americans. But right \\ now, they do. \\ \\ **Who do you think should **\\ \\ **decide what’s best for you and your **\\ \\ **family?**\\ \\ ** **\\ \\ WHAT’S A CONVENTION OF STATES?\\ \\ Article V of the U.S. Constitution \\ \\ **gives **\\ \\ **states the power to call a Convention \\ of States to propose**\\ \\  amendments limit-\\ \\ ed to the subjects outlined in our resolu-\\ tion.  To allow the states to make recom-\\ mendations that, “limit the power and \\ jurisdiction of the federal government, \\ impose fiscal restraints, and place term \\ \\ limits on federal officials.”\\ \\ ** **\\ \\ HOW IT WORKS?\\ \\ To call a Convention of States, 34 states \\ must pass identical resolutions in each \\ chamber of their legislature. Each state’s \\ delegation participates in drafting and \\ voting on proposed amendments that are \\ sent back to the states. It takes 38 states \\ to adopt and ratify any amendments that \\ \\ are proposed.\\ \\ ** **\\ \\  \\ \\ \\ \\ {{:public:cb_mirror:files_11615_pdfto002.png?nolink&1188x918|}}\\ \\ THE RESOLUTION\\ \\ **Fiscal Restraints**\\ \\  – If the government taxed at 100 percent and confiscat-\\ \\ ed everything, it wouldn’t cover the mountain of debt that we have already \\ accumulated.\\ \\ **Restrict the Power, Scope, and Jurisdiction of the Federal Government**\\ \\  –\\ \\  \\ \\ Congress has turned state legislatures into their regional agencies rather \\ than respecting them as truly independent republican governments.\\ \\ **Term Limits for Federal Official **\\ \\ –\\ \\  \\ \\ Our Founders never wanted anyone to \\ \\ make a career out of public service. The longer someone stays in D.C., the \\ less connection they have to their constituents. Our federal officials, bu-\\ reaucrats, the Supreme Court, or Congresspeople do not have any reason \\ to change because We the People are not engaged.\\ \\ RESOLUTION PROGRESS - 19 OF 34 PASSED\\ \\ **    **\\ \\ **  **\\ \\ Active Legislation in this year \\ \\ Passed COS Resolution\\ \\ Passed in one chamber\\ \\ **THE STRENGTH OF OUR ARMY**\\ \\  \\ \\ NATIONALLY\\ \\ Supporters – \\ \\ **Over 5 million **\\ \\   \\ \\ Petition Signers – \\ \\ **Over 2 million**\\ \\ Volunteers – \\ \\ **Over 200,000 **\\ \\ MICHIGAN\\ \\  \\ \\ Volunteers – \\ \\ **Over 700**\\ \\  \\ \\ Petition Signers – \\ \\ **Over 84,000**\\ \\ RESEARCH\\ \\ Voters Favor Convention of States\\ \\  \\ \\ **Democrats – 50%**\\ \\ **Republicans – 71%**\\ \\ ** Other (no affiliation) – 66%**\\ \\ Overall, almost two-thirds (62%) of Michigan \\ \\ voters supported a Convention of States.\\ \\ |
