Our Mission

     Build an engaged army of self-governing grassroots activists. And we're making GREAT progress!

 

Our Aspirational Goals

     To inspire a Spiritual and Political wakening in America..

 

Who Are We?

     Convention of States Action is a 501©(4) nonprofit organization founded for the purpose of stopping 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 as big as the problem.

 

Why Call a Convention of States?

     Washington, D.C., is broken and will never voluntarily relinquish power, no matter who is elected. It is time for American citizens to take a stand against tyranny and make a legitimate coordinated nationwide effort to curb the power of the federal government. Only a Convention of States has the constitutional power to repair the damage and halt the federal government from eroding the liberties of the sovereign citizens further.

 

What is a Convention of States?

     A Convention of States is a convention called by the state legislatures for the purpose of proposing amendments to the Constitution. This power is granted to them under Article V of the Constitution of the United States. It is not a constitutional convention (Con - Con) and cannot throw out or replace the Constitution. A Convention of States can only propose amendments that fit within the topic of the applications adopted by the state legislatures. Once amendments have been voted on and approved, 38 states must ratify the amendments for them to become law. Therefore, a “Runaway” convention is not possible.

 

Participate in our Amendment Poll

     There are so many different amendments which may come from the convention, which fit into our three areas (federal term limits, federal fiscal responsibility, and federal jurisdiction). We have come up with quick summaries of a few we have considered and we look forward to sharing our list with our selected commissioners, when the time comes, so they know We the People's wish list. Click here to see what we've put together and participate in prioritizing them.

Please watch the below video to learn more about our movement.

Article V of the Constitution of  the United States?

     “The Congress, whenever two thirds of both Houses shall deem it necessary, shall propose Amendments to this Constitution, or, on the Application of the Legislatures of two thirds of the several States, shall call a Convention for proposing Amendments, which, in either Case, shall be valid to all Intents and Purposes, as Part of this Constitution, when ratified by the Legislatures of three fourths of the several States, or by Conventions in three fourths thereof, as the one or the other Mode of Ratification may be proposed by the Congress; Provided that no Amendment which may be made prior to the Year One thousand eight hundred and eight shall in any Manner affect the first and fourth Clauses in the Ninth Section of the first Article; and that no State, without its Consent, shall be deprived of its equal Suffrage in the Senate.” It permits us, “WE THE PEOPLE” to “Rain on Their Parade”.
