Article V of the U.S. Constitution provides an opportunity for two-thirds of the states to apply for a constitutional convention, which must be called by Congress. Three-fourths of the states must then ratify any proposed amendments. What limits may be placed on the scope of the convention and by whom? What are the costs and ben-efits of using this method to propose constitutional amendments? Join us on April 10th as we discuss these and other important questions.
There is no charge for this event.
Space is limited - please RSVP by April 6th.
Lunch will be provided.
