Convention of States

is a national grassroots movement 

millions of patriots strong. With a 

forceful presence in each state, our 

volunteers act to inspire our state 

legislators to invoke Article V of the U.S. 

Constitution.

With this powerful instrument given 

to us by our Founders to safeguard 

against tyranny, the states can propose 

amendments to the Constitution that 

can reduce the power and jurisdiction of 

the federal government.

Uninhibited Federal Government

The overreach of our federal government 

is undeniably excessive.  In addition 

to a soaring national debt, American 

citizens have recently endured egregious 

violations of our liberties. Informed 

patriots know it is past time to use the 

tool the Founders gave us to fight tyranny 

and restore self-governance.

Convention of States

“We The People” know that the only 

way to take on the Washington elites is 

to bypass them by way of a Convention 

of States.  Our national movement is 

working to invoke Article V of the U.S. 

Constitution, unite the states in this 

effort, and propose amendments that 

advance liberty.

A total of 34 states must pass our 

resolution to call a convention - and we’re 

over halfway there!  As our resolution 

proposes, the platform of a convention is 

strictly limited to three subjects:
•  Impose fiscal restraints on the federal 

government

•  Limit the power, scope, and 

jurisdiction of the federal government

•  Set term limits on Congress and 

federal officials

Amending the Constitution

Article V of the Constitution provides 
two ways to propose amendments to 

the Constitution.  Amendments can be 

proposed both through Congress and 

by state convention.  In either case, a 

proposed amendment does not become 

law until it is passed by 38 states, which is a 

supermajority of the 50 states.

To date, Congress has proposed 33 

amendments, 27 of which have been 

adopted.  The importance of Article V 

and the amendment process cannot be 

overstated.  Amending the Constitution 

brought us the Bill of Rights and other 

entitlements Americans cherish.

No amendment has ever been proposed 

through state convention, circumventing 

the U.S. Congress.  The Convention 

of States Project proposes 

it’s high time the states 

call such a convention to 

rein in our unrestrained 

federal government and 

set term limits for federal 

offices.  These are duties 

that will never originate in 

Washington D.C.

The Legislative Process

Currently just under half of U.S. 

states have passed a COS resolution.  

A “passed” state implies that both 

houses of a state’s respective 

chambers have formally agreed to 

hold a convention.  Boasting more 

than 118,000 petition signers calling 

for a convention, Ohio has seen active 

legislation, but has yet to pass the 

resolution.  The COS team in Ohio 

continues to work tirelessly to educate 

state legislators in this safe, legal, and 

effective method of advocating for 

liberty.

Congress will never impose restraints 

on itself.  But the financial situation of 

our country under the power of elite 

bureaucrats is grave.  The Convention 

of States Project believes, as do many 

state legislators nationwide, that the 

only effective way to propose the 

profound changes necessary at the 

federal level is by 

calling a 

convention of 

states.

OF STATES GAINS
