This includes right-of- center supporters of new limits on federal power, such as a balanced budget constitutional amendment, as well as backers on the left who support a constitutional amendment to overturn the Supreme Court\u2019s decision in Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission (FEC), a ruling that reversed decades\u00a0of well-settled law limiting corporate political spending.\r\n\r\nA federal constitutional convention\u00a0was last held in 1787 when the Constitution itself was drafted. Since\u00a0then, the U.S. Constitution has been\u00a0amended 27 times through the first\u00a0of two processes described in Article\u00a0V: Congress by two-thirds majorities\u00a0of both the House and Senate passes the amendment, which must then\u00a0be approved (i.e., ratified) by three\u00a0fourths of the state legislatures. The\u00a0second, never used path to amend\u00a0the Constitution laid out in Article V\u00a0is for two-thirds of the state legislatures (34) to pass resolutions applying for a new constitutional convention to propose amendments and then send those amendments to the states for ratification (i.e., an Article V convention).\r\n\r\nThere are too many unanswered questions regarding an Article V convention to risk a free- for-all rewrite of our Constitution. Could a convention be limited to one issue? What rules, if any, would be in place to govern a convention? What role would outside special interest groups have in influencing a convention\u2019s agenda? Who would choose delegates to send to the convention? What would happen in the case of legal disputes about the convention? What role would the courts play? How would votes be delegated by state, and would the American people really be equally represented?\r\n\r\nSimply put, there are no guardrails in place to ensure an orderly course for an Article V convention. Any Article V convention, regardless of the stated purpose going in, runs the risk of becoming a runaway convention. There is no saying what could happen to any of our rights or what could be traded in an exchange between special interests\u2014who will most definitely have their hands in the process. There is no predicting what could happen and far too many open-ended questions for this to be a good idea.\r\n<div class=\"page\" title=\"Pahina 6\">\r\n<div class=\"section\">\r\n<div class=\"layoutArea\">\r\n<div class=\"column\">\r\n\r\nFor all these reasons, Common Cause co-leads the national Defend Our Constitution coalition, which seeks to stop an Article V convention from being called in order to protect all Americans\u2019 constitutional rights and civil liberties that would be threatened by such a convention. Holding such a convention runs the very high risk of being taken over by highly polarized politicians and wealthy special interests seeking to cripple federal powers and roll back our rights. At a time when disinformation is running rampant and deliberately being disseminated through various channels, a constitutional convention could be absolutely devastating to our rights and liberties.\r\n\r\nThis report aims to examine the pro-convention campaigns and who is behind them, and to shed light on the immense dangers of what would happen should these efforts succeed. It will also make the case that a convention could easily exceed any narrow mandate\u2014e.g., a balanced budget amendment (BBA)\u2014and instead undertake a wholesale and highly divisive rewrite of our nation\u2019s charter.\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>"}},{"acf_fc_layout":"layout_pull_quote","_acfe_flexible_toggle":"","component_pull_quote":{"quote":"[T]here is no way to effectively limit or muzzle the actions of a Constitutional Convention.

The unanswered questions about a convention have led to debate among legal scholars. Among the questions are the following:\r\n\r\n\u2022 What if the state petitions are not identical? Would Congress still have to act?\r\n\r\n\u2022 What if Congress was deadlocked and failed to act on those petitions; could a court step in and order the convention convened?\r\n\r\n\u2022 If Congress acted, how would the convention work?\r\n\r\n\u2022 Who would choose the delegates and decide how many each state could send?\r\n\r\n\u2022 Would the convention\u2019s work be limited to one subject\u2014like the balanced budget plan or campaign finance reform\u2014or might delegates undertake a wholesale rewrite of the national charter?\r\n\r\n\u2022 And if the convention agreed on one or more amendments, would Congress be required to forward them to the states for ratification?\r\n\r\nThere are dozens of such questions and multiple possible answers to each of them.

Furthermore, evidence in the poll shows the reluctance of Republican voters to take drastic steps to alter this foundational document.
