Take action now to stop special interests from putting our constitutional rights up for grabs!<\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/p>

The Nevada legislature moved today to protect every American’s constitutional rights by rescinding the state’s previous calls for an Article V constitutional convention.The rescission measure passed both chambers of the Nevada legislature with unanimous support. <\/p>

Under Article V of the U.S. Constitution, a convention must be called when two-thirds of the state legislatures (34) apply for one. <\/p>

Nevada’s action is a major blow to wealthy special interest groups, including the American Legislative Exchange Council (ALEC), which are pushing for an Article V convention to propose a balanced budget amendment. <\/p>

Due to the lack of rules and precedents, most constitutional experts agree that a constitutional convention cannot be limited in scope, meaning that it could easily turn into a free-for-all.<\/p>

Until today, ALEC, a corporate lobby that masquerades as a charity, and its allies claimed to have 28 states with active applications calling for a convention to consider a balanced budget amendment. That’s just six states shy of the 34-state threshold. Nevada’s rescission increases the gap by one, giving Americans a slightly larger cushion against this dangerous idea. <\/p>

<\/p>

This is a great victory for the bipartisan coalition of local grassroots and advocacy groups which urged the legislature to pass rescission. Common Cause was supportive of Nevada’s rescission legislation and submitted testimony<\/a> urging the legislature to pass the bill. <\/p>

Nevada is the fourth state in the last two years to rescind its Article V convention application. Common Cause and its allies led successful rescission campaigns in Delaware last year and New Mexico and Maryland this year.<\/p>

Just last month, over 230 public interest and constitutional rights groups \u0111\u00e3 \u0111\u01b0a ra m\u1ed9t tuy\u00ean b\u1ed1 <\/a>opposing calls for an Article V convention and urged legislatures to rescind any live applications.<\/p>
