Calling on the United States
Congress and instructing Congress to convene the Sovereignty Amendment
Convention under the authority reserved to State Legislatures in Article V of
the United States Constitution.
Whereas, Article IV, Section 4 of the Constitution of the
United States guarantees to every State a Republican form of government which
gives each State equal standing when calling for Amendment Conventions. Article
V of the Constitution of the United States reserves to the several States the
right to call for a Federal Amendment Convention for the purpose of proposing
Amendments to the United States Constitution when Congress, the Courts, or the
Executive Branch refuse to address an egregious wrong suffered by the people;
and
Whereas, The States alone have the authority to "define" and
“limit” the agenda at an Article V Amendment Convention. The authority of
Congress, under Article V of the United States Constitution, empowers it to
convene a Convention as Called for and defined by the several States; and
Whereas, The SOVEREIGNTY AMENDMENT CONVENTION will be a
“Single Issue Amendment Convention" defined by State Legislatures. The delegates
summoned to this convention by Congress will have the authority to deliberate on
and decide if the SOVEREIGNTY AMENDMENT, as pre-approved by State Legislatures,
should be sent back to the State Legislatures for ratification. Absolutely no
other business will be authorized at this Convention; therefore, be it
Resolved by the Legislature of . .
. . . . . . . . . . . . :
That the United States Congress
convene a “Single Issue Amendment Convention” called the SOVEREIGNTY AMENDMENT
CONVENTION for the sole purpose to decide if the proposed Amendment should be
sent back to the State Legislatures for ratification. Congress is directed to
convene the Sovereignty Amendment Convention within 60 days from the date it
receives the 34th Call for this Convention from State Legislatures;
and, be it
