It's time Wyoming joined Convention of States!
 Congress and its bureaucrats will never limit their own power. They will continue to spend irresponsibly and take over policymaking in areas like education and commerce–issues that should be left to the states and local governments. The only way to correct this is from the outside–and the states have the power to do it through Article V of the Constitution. It’s time that Wyoming joined with the 19 other states planning an Article V meeting to propose constitutional amendments that will put the brakes on the federal government.

Congress and its bureaucrats will never limit their own power. They will continue to spend irresponsibly and take over policymaking in areas like education and commerce–issues that should be left to the states and local governments.

HOW WOULD A CONVENTION OF STATES WORK?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n82exC6zLqA MEDIA ATTENTION * Convention of States: A Wyoming Perspective * Letter To The Editor: Urge Your Legislators To Pass Convention Of States * Letter to the Editor: Convention of States * Letter to the Editor: 'Detached from Reality' * Lawmakers advance bill that would convene a convention of states & limit power of federal government * Laursen calls for resolution to amend U.S. Constitution * Senate passes Convention of the States bill to the house * Legislators look at budget, taxes and election security on Tuesday WHAT OUR OPPONENTS SAY If you’ve heard from the John Birch Society that Article V of our Constitution can’t be trusted, it’s important for you to know that they are borrowing from the talking points of the radical Left. Don’t fall for it. Our Founding Fathers gave the states the Article V convention process for such a time as this–they knew the national government would eventually try to overpower the states. This process it the last real “check” the states have left to impose reform on Washington, D.C., and protect the powers and rights of the states. All of the objections and arguments have well-researched answers, given by actual constitutional experts. Would it help to know that statesmen and experts you trust are behind this effort? Here’s a list of some of our more famous endorsers! The Tenth Amendment sets forth an important principle of our constitutional system: that powers not delegated to the national government are reserved to the states and the people. Article V’s convention process is the process given to the states to enforce that principle. It’s high time we used it.  // // *All data and polling taken from The Trafalgar Group Nationwide Issues Survey, July 2022 |
