CONSTITUTIONAL CONVENTION

Summary

The resolution asks the United States Congress to convene a constitutional convention, as permitted by Article 5, to consider amendments that would impose fiscal restraints on the federal government, curb its jurisdiction, and set term limits for federal officials and members of Congress. It reflects New Mexico’s worries about the growing national debt and perceived federal overreach, and any changes would affect all federal officials and ultimately every American.
