Los grupos tambi\u00e9n se opusieron a cualquier nueva resoluci\u00f3n que convoque a una convenci\u00f3n del Art\u00edculo V. \u00abUna Convenci\u00f3n Constitucional entregar\u00eda las riendas de nuestra democracia a un pu\u00f1ado de intereses especiales adinerados y no electos\u00bb, declar\u00f3 Geoff Foster, Director Ejecutivo de Common Cause Massachusetts. \u00abAl revocar las obsoletas solicitudes de una convenci\u00f3n del Art\u00edculo V, protegeremos nuestra Constituci\u00f3n de poderosos intereses especiales y garantizaremos que ning\u00fan intento de manipular las cifras para alcanzar el umbral de 34 estados incluya a Massachusetts\u00bb. La Liga de Mujeres Votantes se opone firmemente a cualquier convocatoria a una convenci\u00f3n constitucional del Art\u00edculo V, a menos que el Congreso apruebe una ley que regule su desarrollo. Actualmente, desconocemos c\u00f3mo se elegir\u00edan los delegados y cu\u00e1ntos ser\u00edan, si la votaci\u00f3n se realizar\u00eda por estado o por poblaci\u00f3n, si la convenci\u00f3n podr\u00eda limitarse a temas espec\u00edficos o si podr\u00eda considerar cualquier asunto, y muchas otras directrices cruciales. Por lo tanto, instamos a la legislatura estatal a aprobar esta resoluci\u00f3n conjunta de revocaci\u00f3n para evitar que Massachusetts sea contabilizado para la convocatoria a una convenci\u00f3n\u201d, declar\u00f3 Celia Canavan, Directora Ejecutiva de la Liga de Mujeres Votantes de Massachusetts. \u201cNo podemos permitirnos jugar con los pilares constitucionales que garantizan salarios justos, lugares de trabajo seguros y el derecho a la sindicalizaci\u00f3n\u201d, afirm\u00f3 Chrissy Lynch, Presidenta de la AFL-CIO de Massachusetts. \u201cMassachusetts ha sido l\u00edder nacional en la protecci\u00f3n de la libertad reproductiva, desde la codificaci\u00f3n del derecho al aborto hasta la aprobaci\u00f3n de la ley de protecci\u00f3n de derechos reproductivos m\u00e1s estricta del pa\u00eds. Sin embargo, una resoluci\u00f3n obsoleta y desconectada de la realidad que exige una convenci\u00f3n constitucional para prohibir el aborto a nivel nacional amenaza con empa\u00f1ar este legado\u201d, declar\u00f3 Claire Teylouni, codirectora ejecutiva interina de Reproductive Equity Now. \u201cRevocar esta resoluci\u00f3n anticuada \u2014y todas las que solicitan una Convenci\u00f3n del Art\u00edculo V\u2014 garantiza que nuestra Mancomunidad no se vea vinculada a una agenda antiaborto que no refleja nuestra identidad, y protege tanto nuestros valores como nuestros derechos de ser socavados a nivel nacional\u201d. \u201cLa Constituci\u00f3n de los Estados Unidos es el recurso m\u00e1s preciado de nuestra naci\u00f3n, y no debemos jugar con ella\u201d, afirm\u00f3 Carol Rose, directora ejecutiva de la ACLU de Massachusetts. Sin reglas y directrices firmemente establecidas por el Congreso, una convenci\u00f3n constitucional podr\u00eda conducir al caos absoluto, incluyendo el debilitamiento de nuestros derechos y libertades civiles. Este es un riesgo inaceptable, especialmente cuando nuestra pol\u00edtica nacional est\u00e1 tan fragmentada. Como organizaci\u00f3n apartidista con m\u00e1s de un siglo de experiencia defendiendo nuestras libertades m\u00e1s preciadas, la ACLU de Massachusetts apoya firmemente la derogaci\u00f3n de las obsoletas solicitudes del Art\u00edculo V de nuestra Mancomunidad y la preservaci\u00f3n de nuestro orden constitucional. Esta iniciativa conjunta responde a la preocupaci\u00f3n de que el Congreso y la Administraci\u00f3n Trump puedan utilizar resoluciones previas de Massachusetts que solicitan una convenci\u00f3n constitucional del Art\u00edculo V para promover su propia agenda pol\u00edtica. Esto podr\u00eda tener implicaciones amplias y de gran alcance sobre nuestras protecciones actuales bajo la Constituci\u00f3n de los Estados Unidos. Una Convenci\u00f3n del Art\u00edculo V es un proceso descrito en la Constituci\u00f3n de los Estados Unidos que permite a los estados proponer enmiendas si dos tercios (34) de las legislaturas estatales lo solicitan. Una Convenci\u00f3n del Art\u00edculo V podr\u00eda abrir la Constituci\u00f3n a cambios impredecibles, ya que no existen directrices ni limitaciones claras sobre lo que los delegados podr\u00edan proponer. Aunque nunca antes se ha convocado una convenci\u00f3n del Art\u00edculo V en la historia de Estados Unidos, existe un impulso conservador reciente para sumar todas las resoluciones activas y alcanzar el umbral de dos tercios.
