|Amid the mind-bending and alarming presidential campaign, it can be easy to get distracted.\\ \\ But the COS North Carolina team has its eyes on the prize. \\ \\ That's because their state is on the verge of making history and the grassroots can make it happen.\\ \\ Because the North Carolina House passed our COS resolution already this session, it only needs to be passed in the State Senate now for North Carolina to become the 20th state in the union to call for an Article V convention to propose amendments to limit the power, scope, and jurisdiction of the federal government.\\ \\ To keep the momentum going, join former United States Senator, former presidential candidate, and Convention of States Action senior advisor **Rick Santorum at a town hall meeting in Wilkesboro, North Carolina, on September 24 at 6:30 p.m. ET. **The event will last until 8:00 p.m.\\ \\ The Town Hall meeting will be held at the Holiday Inn Express/Yadkin Valley Event Center, which is located at 1700 Winkler Street in Wilkesboro.
