The following link takes you to a plan put forth by TX Governor Greg Abbott, to propose amendments to our Constitution, to bring the balance of powers back to the founders original intent.
It's a very lengthy document, 93 pages with footnotes, but it's worth the read. It explains in detail why the amendments are needed and thoroughly explains how far our republic has strayed form its founding. It's both educational and informative. The proposals would have to be implemented through a Article 5 convention, the establishment in both parties would reject them out of hand, they wouldn't want to give back the power they've accumulated over the years.
I don't fully agree with the plan entirely but it's a place to start the discussion.
Please don't comment until you at least read the full summary, it's only 2.5 pages.

Except that the Congress does not have to call a V convenction.
The modal is "shall" not "will".
Sorry, boss, but you are wrong. I know, but you just are.
Neither Congress nor SCOTUS will ratify any amendments from a convention they don't approve.

It doesn't say " may do it whenever we damn well feel like it" either. I shall pay my taxes doesn't mean I will do it whenever I want. I have to do it. Learn english....

Its a pretty awful proposal. As it lowers the threshold necessary for the States to strip people of rights to 2/3rds rather than its proper 3/4. And the first thing that Texas would do with such authority would be to start taking away rights of federal citizens.
The modality of the meaning of shall and will are similar not the same. The Congress will simply continuing ignoring the cry to call the Convention and suits have not been entertained favorably by SCOTUS. So show me 'how' the Convention will be convened. The States can't do it on their own authority; SCOTUS will simply throw it out.Except that the Congress does not have to call a V convenction.

Another dummy chimes in, a State wouldn't be able to do a damn thing on its own. It would take 34 States to do anything. Does it hurt to be wrong so often?

And when, pray tell, did I say a State could do anything on its own? I said if Texas could strip rights, it would. Oh, and what part of this sentence confused you so utterly?

It is not up to Congress or SCOTUS. If the required states file the petition the Congress shall convene the convention. It's not a request... it's not an option.

I agree......once its been determined that the threshold has been passed. I would argue that its Congress' duty to determine that threshold. Probably using the Office of the Federal Register.

There are already more than 600 requests from 49 States for a convention in the record, has been for years, so why hasn't congress called one? I've been asking my reps that question, have you?
The proposed "amendments" are absurd and are aimed at undermining the supremacy of the national government INTENDED within the four corners of the US Constitution that got rid of the Articles of Confederation in the first place. It's nothing more than a proposal for the neoconservative faction to take over national control through oligarchic rule and transform existing individual rights into majority rights & rule with the majority being that of the ruling oligarchs.The following link takes you to a plan put forth by TX Governor Greg Abbott, to propose amendments to our Constitution, to bring the balance of powers back to the founders original intent.
