This bill puts our Constitution at extreme risk.

Some people think calling a constitutional convention will help create new “limits” on the federal government.
But the truth is, our Constitution could be shredded if any bill calling for a dangerous Article V Constitutional Convention passes in Iowa.
The federal government has been ignoring the limits placed on it by the Constitution for years.
When politicians ignore the Constitution with impunity, passing another amendment isn’t going to change that.
Some Article V Convention supporters think a constitutional convention can be limited to certain types or categories of changes.
And many people believe that this bill would limit a convention to specific issues. But that simply is not true. Most scholars agree that a constitutional convention cannot be limited.
And that’s just one reason why Iowa Campaign for Liberty opposes an Article V Constitutional Convention.
It’s vitally important that you contact the House Judiciary Committee right away!!
One group supporting a convention points out on its own website that if a convention is called. . .
. . .“the convention of states itself would determine which ideas deserve serious consideration. . .”
What they fail to point out is that literally hundreds of progressive organizations, such as Sierra Club, Code Pink, Alliance for Progressive Values, MoveOn, and “Occupy,” have been pushing for a convention since 2009!
Do you trust the hundreds of progressive organizations calling for an Article V Convention to do the right thing and rein in the federal government?
Do you trust the powerful special interests, backed by George Soros and his ilk, to do the right thing?
There is simply no way a convention can be limited.
Article V of the Constitution only allows states to apply to Congress for a convention to amend the Constitution.
Once the required number of states submit their applications, Congress must “call” the convention.
Article V does not empower the states to have any control over the convention itself.
You would have NO control over the rules of the convention or who attends to represent you.
Please contact the House Judiciary Committee right away!!
Do you remember how Establishment Republicans treated the liberty delegates at the 2012 GOP conventions?
Imagine what will happen at a convention being held to manipulate the U.S. Constitution, with BOTH Republican and Democrat Establishment and hundreds of progressive, George Soros-types pulling the strings.
A convention is extremely dangerous – especially today!
This bill must be stopped.
In Liberty,
Dusty Juhl

P.S. If an Article V Convention were called, it would likely be impossible to stop devastating changes from being made to our Constitution. According to America’s history of conventions, the delegates chosen could wield unlimited power to propose revisions to our Constitution.
It’s critical that you contact the House Judiciary Committee right away!!
Demand that they vote NO on HJR 8.
