%%**%%*BREAKING NEWS: Thank you to everyone who responded to the Call to Action below. Unfortunately, the Mississippi House adjourned early, ending the legislative season before HCR 78 was able to be heard on the floor. We appreciate all the volunteer hours that went into this effort. In the next year, we will continue to build grassroot supporters in the state and look forward to seeing a victory in the next legislative season!%%**%%*

Today, Mississippi stands at a crossroad.

In the next five days, Mississippi’s legislature will adjourn for the year. Will your legislators fight to protect your constitutional rights and impose much needed restraints on our runaway federal government before session ends?

Right now, the answer is “no”.

**HCR 78,** your state’s application to call for a Convention of States to propose amendments to the U.S. Constitution that would limit the power of the federal government, impose term limits on its officials, and establish fiscal restraints, **has not been scheduled for a House floor vote.**

Freedom is not for the faint of heart. Today, we must fight to defend our liberty.

**If you're a citizen of Mississippi, please call and email the following members of the MS House of Representatives. Kindly remind them that this is an election year, and ask them to call for a floor vote and support HCR 78.**

I encourage you to write your email in your own words, from your heart, kindly encouraging these legislators to support HCR 78 and call for a floor vote. Prioritize legislators listed in bold.

Thank-you for contacting your legislators in support of HCR 3014. In the words of John Quincy Adams, “Posterity — you will never know how much it has cost my generation to preserve your freedom. I hope you will make good use of it.”

I look forward to telling my grandchildren how our generation fought to preserve its most cherished possession: liberty.
