Here is the full text of the resolution passed by Alabama’s House:

WHEREAS, the Founders of our Constitution empowered state legislators to be guardians of liberty against future abuses of power by the federal government; and

WHEREAS, the federal government has created a crushing national debt through improper and imprudent
spending; and

WHEREAS, the federal government has invaded the legitimate roles of the states through the manipulative process of federal mandates, most of which are unfunded to a great extent; and

WHEREAS, the federal government has ceased to live under a proper interpretation of the Constitution of the United States; and

WHEREAS, it is the solemn duty of the states to protect the liberty of our people, particularly for the generations to come, to propose amendments to the Constitution of the United States through a Convention of the States under Article V to place clear restraints on these and related abuses of power; now therefore,

BE IT RESOLVED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF ALABAMA, BOTH HOSUES THEREOF CONCURRING, That the Legislature of the States of Alabama hereby applies to Congress, under the provisions of Article V of the Constitution of the United States, for the calling of a convention of the states limited to proposing amendments that impose fiscal restrains on the federal government, limit the power and jurisdiction of the federal government, and limit the terms of office for its officials.

BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, That the Secretary of State is hereby directed to transmit copies of this application to the President and Secretary of the United States Senate and to the Speaker and Clerk of the United States House of Representatives, and to the members of the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States Congress from this state; and to also transmit copies hereof to the presiding officers of each of the legislative houses in the several states, requesting their cooperation.

BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, That this application constitutes a continuing application in accordance with Article V of the Constitution of the United States until the Legislatures of at least two-thirds of the several states have made applications on the same subject.

This govt. is not and can not be run by one person, the items of complaint in the article for redress was done under GOP and Democratic administrations. There is no one single person or party to blame.

I do not believe either party cares about serving the people. I believe both parties are solely concerned with defeating the other party.

This could be a huge step towards reining in the spending that is crippling our nation.

The real problem I agree is that they act like enemies in public, but behind closed doors the self emulating profit creed is followed and they are all in cahoots.

I think this would serve the people, regardless of the party in power.

Our democracy is still very strong, but the voters are very lazy and uninvolved. That's no excuse for terrorism.

I would think this would be a way to avoid any violence concerning the direction our nation is headed.

It was done by the Federal Government. both Parties are guilty to different degrees leading up to the tyrant now in the White House changing Law by Executive Order 28 times.
No President in History has violated his Oath of Office and exceeded his authority more than Obama. FDR came close and the Democrats themselves pushed the Amendment through limiting the President to two terms. It's ironic that they saw fit to wait until he was out of office and dead before acting against his tyranny.

Article V is in the Constitution, it's not terrorism. Terrorism is using the IRS to shut down opposition.

I think you're an alarmist.

So was Thomas Pain, Patrick Henry, Paul Revere, Benjamin Franklin, Jefferson, Madison, Hamilton, and the rest of our Founding Fathers.

The Alarm is begging to be sounded. Anyone who is against an article V Convention is for the Tyranny our Government has become.
Obama didn't start this but he very likely committed the acts that tipped the scale.
