Will Montana jump in the race to become state #20? On Friday, January 24, the Montana House Business & Labor Committee heard public testimony on HJ5 (COS Action's Article V Resolution). The Convention of States Montana team packed the committee room and gave a masterclass on delivering articulate, polite, yet passionate citizen testimony. COS Co-Founder Michael Farris also provided remarks as an expert on the Constitution. To cap off the program, Rita Peters, Mark Meckler, Andrew Lusch, and Deanna Becket react to the hearing and detail what happens next in the process.
HJ5 reads: "The Legislature of the State of Montana hereby applies to Congress, under the provisions of Article V of the Constitution of the United States, for the calling of a convention of the states limited to proposing amendments to the Constitution of the United States that impose fiscal restraints on the federal government, limit the power and jurisdiction of the federal government, and limit the terms of office for its officials and for members of Congress." This resolution has been successfully passed by 19 other states. Two-thirds of the states are required to call an Article V convention.
