I'm cautiously optimistic about the idea.

The Convention of the States movement is ** pushing for such a convention.

This time, conservatives want to constitutionally reduce the size of government, make it easier to fire federal employees such as Anthony Fauci, the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases' director, eliminate whole Cabinet-level agencies, and enshrine a nine-justice Supreme Court.

We should keep our eyes and efforts on this.

Also, "just 15 states away" is a weird way to put it. 2/3 of 50 is about 35, so 15 states away implies that you have only 20 right now. That means you'd have to nearly double your count to reach the threshold, so it isn't even close really.

The article is written by a center-leftist for center-left readers. It's fearmongering that Trump and corporations are going to rewrite the entire Constitution.

As the article notes, most conventions have failed, but they scare DC into taking their desires seriously. I'm hopeful that will be the case.
