Convention of States


It’s a Disaster. Liberals are pushing for a Convention of States. This is not a good idea.
 
1. What ails America? Is it our Constitution or our Congressional, Presidential, and bureaucratic non-compliance with the Constitution?
The central problem with American government is the belief that the purpose of government is to provide for our needs. Washington, D.C. carefully nurtures this belief because it serves its own prime purpose—the aggregation of federal power. Accordingly, Washington, D.C. has gradually amassed overwhelming power that is clearly outside of the boundaries that the Framers intended when they wrote the Constitution.
 
 
The process we’ve used to adopt and repeal Amendments to the U.S. Constitution is to have the Congress write the Amendment and have the States vote to ratify it.  The States control the process and have the last say. This requires ¾ of the States to ratify. The last 2 Amendments failed to pass. This is the only safe way to approve Amendments.
 
The process that is being used for this effort is to have States petition the Congress to hold a Convention of States to consider their stated Amendments. Governors appoint the delegates and the Congress controls the process.  This requires 2/3 of states to ratify.
 
Liberals want to have 2/3 of the States send these petitions, because they want to introduce more petitions at the Convention to change the Constitution to confirm all of the unconstitutional powers the federal government has illegally assumed to date.
 
It is likely that those in power, even Republicans, would change our Constitution to accommodate the desires of the global government crowd.  These Liberals are Marxists who have outlined their plan in UN Agenda 21. They are the Puppet Masters and include global Communist billionaires who have already purchased our government with campaign contributions.
 
Georgia sent its petition calling for a Convention of States in 2014.  We need to recall that petition and cancel it.  Call your Georgia legislators.
