From COS (the movement): For the first time in our nation's history, 17 of the requisite 34 states have called for a Convention of States to rein in federal power, impose fiscal restraints on Congress, and limit the terms of office for federal officials.
All good goals.
But, the odds of getting 34 States to sign on are slim to none, just too dangerous because they could do anything once Pandora’s box is opened, but hey, 2020. As far as I can tell, no Article V convention of states has ever been accomplished.
