We are a grassroots army of 25,000+ patriots in Nevada, dedicated to ensuring that important decisions be made as close to home as possible. We believe local voices make better choices for our communities, neighborhoods, and schools. Washington, D.C.'s one size fits all style of governance doesn't work for a state as diverse as Nevada, where each county, town, and community has different cultures, different ideas, and different priorities on issues of policy.

Our mission is to educate the citizens of Nevada on Article V to restore self-governance to the state's people. Our goal is to join those states that have already passed in calling a convention under Article V of the United States Constitution, restricted to proposing amendments that will impose fiscal restraints on the federal government, limit its power and jurisdiction, and impose term limits on its officials and members of Congress.

===== The Project Explained… =====	=====   =====
	Who We Are PURPOSE   Convention of States Action is a 501 ©(4) non-profit organization founded to stop the runaway power of the federal government.  We believe Washington, D.C., is broken and will not fix itself.  The federal government is spending this country into the ground, seizing power from the states and taking liberty from the people. We have a solution that is as big as the problem.
What We Want To Do GOAL Convention of States Action (COSA) seeks to urge and empower state legislators to call a convention of states. Delegates to the convention will have the power to propose amendments to the Constitution to curb federal government abuses. Article V of the Constitution gives them this power; the COS Project will give them an avenue through which they can use it.
	Why We Want To Do It PROBLEM   - The Spending and Debt Crisis - The Regulatory Crisis - Congressional Attacks on State Sovereignty - Federal Takeover of the Decision-Making Process
How We Will Do It PLAN - It takes 34 states to call the convention and 38 to ratify any proposed amendments. Our convention would only allow the states to discuss amendments that “limit the power and jurisdiction of the federal government, impose fiscal restraints, and place term limits on federal officials.” - We believe grassroots support is the key to successfully calling a convention. We are building a political operation in all 50 states, recruiting 100 citizens ready to contact their state legislators in at least 75% of the state legislative districts.
	What About Nevada NEVADA'S PLAN GOES ONE STEP FURTHER Introduce the grassroots to getting involved by familiarizing them with their local government. Encourage people to be influential voices in their community.  We believe that local government is the People's best representative voice.  We believe we can have the most meaningful impact on our legislators and our communities by working with the municipalities. Contributing to the improvement of our counties as well as our state.
