Such a convention is what lead to the overthrow of the Articles of Confederation and a coup to replace it with the Constitution. There are already many model constitutions waiting for a convention and none of them have anything like a Bill of Rights in them.

Convention of States is not the same as the constitutional convention, but article 5 is literally in the constitution as a method for the people to have the power over the federal government. Remember, the constitution does not limit the people of the states, it is there to limit the federal government!

Here's the main problem -

I agree. It’s up to those of us with the knowledge to help our fellow citizens.

It talks about getting a constitutional convention initiated.

I'd like to know what you are smoking if you think the Constitution limits the federal government that used it to overthrow the Articles of Confederation that created the United States of America.

The Fed is a private corporation masquerading as a government agency and should be abolished.

I actually agree with you on this

When there were still phonebooks, you could look the Fed up in the business pages if there was a local Federal Reserve Bank, but they never appeared in the blue government pages.

34 states are needed to pass ass identical applications for a convention of states. THEN 38 states are needed to ratify any proposed amendments.

Congress DOES NOT have a say in what the 34 states propose, nor what 38 states ratify.

Article 5 has 2 sections.

We are working on using section 2. Congress is not involved other than to name the time and place that the state legislatures will meet.

Don’t take it from me; take it from Mark Levin.

Congress isn’t going to fix itself.

All you get if you call their phone number is a string of voicemail boxes.

If they don't want to talk to me, I don't want to support them.

By the way, Mark Meckler is actually a follower of the C&C newsletter and I believe he and Jeff know each other. This is a grassroots organization run by volunteers. If you want to speak to someone who represents our organization, I can connect you with a regional captain for your area- we are present in all fifty states. We are busy trying to educate people and get the application passed in the necessary 34 states. This is far from a sham.

As a last chance to find legitimacy in this process, you can give me the contact information for the regional captain for Wyoming.

If you go to COSACTION .com click on the RESOURCES TAB to learn more about COS! I’m having difficulty getting back in and finding your comment to respond so sorry if I don’t reply timely…

What usually happens is you sign the petition( https://conventionofstates.com/?ref=57705 ) and then you are contacted by your local COS volunteers. There’s no office with paid staff to call.

Note: Russell Fry is apparently a COS volunteer who is now running for office, and that’s why you See him on the website.

The only human being I could find to ask about it was the guy who answered the phone in Fry's Washington office and he knew nothing about it. The entire organization is hiding.

It is just another voicebox belonging to "me."

As I said, we are all just unpaid volunteers because this is a grassroots organization. Russell Fry is just a volunteer who is now running for office. He is not one of our founders. Go back to the Cosaction.com and click on the resources tab to learn more. I am sure that Marlene will get back to you if you left her a voicemail asking for information on COS.

Your founders are more anonymous than Fry.

I don't leave messages on anonymous voicemail boxes, that being a good way to get phished.

A sham and a scam are entirely different. Russell Fry's office knows nothing about this.

Cosaction.com looks to be a campaign ad for Russell Fry, who appears to be plural as "representatives."

You are mistaken. Convention of States is a nonprofit, non-partisan, grassroots organization of citizens for self governance. The goal, of course, is to get to a Convention of States, but the mission is to create the largest grassroots army of citizens for self governance. As unpaid volunteers, we reach, teach and activate Citizens.

We are cofounded by Mark Meckler, Atty, and Michael Farris Atty. Mark Meckler was the founder of the tea party and interim CEO of parlor.

COS does not endorse or campaign for any candidates for office, but it is endorsed by many good strong people in government eg Ron DeSantis, Chip Roy, And many others

What could be known by Cosaction.com that isn't stated in the documents themselves or the writings of those who wrote them?
