Below is a list of modern leaders who have officially endorsed the Convention of States. While many Americans have chosen to stand shoulder to shoulder with COS there are also those that have publicly opposed the efforts for an Article V Convention.\r\r
The George Soros funded left-wing policy group Common Cause declared war on COS, announcing the formation of the largest radical left alliance in US history. Almost every radical, liberal, progressive, Marxist group in America signed onto a coalition to oppose the use of Article V and the Convention of States as provided in our Constitution. \r
\r
In doing so, they accomplished something that even Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders couldn’t: they unified the radical left with one voice.\r

“I absolutely support the Convention
of States Project, designed for fulfilling
the Constitutional methodologies
for protecting our rights. Article V
exists so that the people have the
final say, not the federal government.
Yes, it can happen—and yes, it
should happen.”
BEN SHAPIRO
WASHINGTON IS BROKEN
UNELECTED BUREAUCRATS HAVE STRIPPED STATES of their rightful decision-making authority.
Consequently, the debt is out of control, regulations crush free enterprise, and our freedoms have
been stolen. But we have a solution as big as the problem.
Article V of the Constitution allows the states to call a convention for proposing amendments to limit
federal spending, debt, and regulations. Amendments can also create better checks on the judiciary and
restore the Constitution as written, in place of the Constitution as interpreted by activist judges.
“There’s only one movement in America
that is standing up to destructive forces
and it’s Convention of States.
There’s not another one. We want our
Constitution back. And we’re
gonna take it back
whether they like it
or not.”
MARK LEVIN
“Years of abuse and overreach by the
judicial, legislative and executive
branches of the federal government
have obliterated the enumerated
powers established by our founders. …
That’s why I support the Convention
of States Project to restore the original
constitutional limits on federal power.”
SEN. RAND PAUL
“I’ve dedicated my life to exposing the
lies, the criminal acts, and unethical
practices committed by the Deep State
in Washington D.C. I am under no illusion
that those in D.C. will ever voluntarily
give up their power. … Calling an Article
V Convention of States will
restore liberty and bring the
power back to the people
where it belongs.”
JAMES O’KEEFE
“Washington, D.C. is fundamentally broken
and it’s past time we look outside the
Swamp for answers. … We have a limited
window of opportunity left to save our
Republic. I call on state legislatures to
pass a Convention of States resolution,
which just might be our last best hope.”
DR. KEVIN ROBERTS
PRESIDENT OF
THE HERITAGE FOUNDATION
“Thank goodness the founders had the wisdom
to provide us with Article V of the
Constitution, which gives us the right and
power to hold an Amending Convention for
the purpose of proposing amendments to
restrain the scope and power of the federal
government… I support the efforts to gather
a Constitutional Convention of States
consistent with Article V and
honoring the 10th Amendment.”

IN MID-APRIL OF 2017, ON GOOD FRIDAY,
the George Soros funded left-wing policy group Common Cause declared war on COS,
announcing the formation of the largest radical left alliance in US history.
Almost every radical, liberal, progressive, Marxist group in America signed onto a coalition to oppose the use of Article V and the Convention
of States as provided in our Constitution. In doing so, they accomplished something that even Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders couldn’t:
they unified the radical left with one voice.
What you see below is taken directly from the press release issued
on Good Friday, April 14, 2017 by Common Cause:
“The undersigned organizations strongly urge state legislatures to oppose efforts to pass a resolution to call for a constitutional
convention. We also strongly urge state legislatures to rescind any application for an Article V constitutional convention in order to
protect all Americans’ constitutional rights and privileges from being put at risk and up for grabs.” — Common Cause
