Compact for a Safe and Equal Convention for Proposing Constitutional Amendments

Summary

The joint resolution creates a binding interstate compact that requires each participating state to ensure its delegates vote on a one‑state‑one‑vote basis and only consider amendments on the subjects that triggered the convention. It applies to any future convention called under Article V and is meant to stop Congress or the convention itself from expanding the agenda. The compact obligates state legislatures and the delegates they send to follow these rules.
