With several states taking action on Convention of States this month, Rita Peters and Andrew Lusch run through the latest legislative updates for Convention of States. Then, the Wyoming Senate Judiciary Committee hears from the public on our Article V application calling for a convention to propose constitutional amendments that would impose fiscal restraints, jurisdictional constraints, and term limits on the federal government. Two legislators introduce the resolution and answer committee questions before State Director Julie Baker gives her own remarks. After some "weird" opponent testimony, including from a lobbyist with an organization that has ties to George Soros, the committee takes a vote on whether to send the legislation to the Wyoming Senate for debate. Then, Regional Director Deanna Becket joins the live broadcast to react to the results and preview next steps.

On February 18 the Iowa House Committee on State Government took up Convention of States Action's Article V application. One committee member argued for not one but five unfriendly amendments to the legislation. After the vote, Regional Director and Iowa native Karen Schuster joins Andrew Lusch and constitutional attorney Rita Peters to react to the big win and preview what comes next in the process. Will Iowa beat South Dakota to becoming state #21?

NEWS: Earlier today, the South Dakota House of Representatives voted on a move by Representative Brian Mulder to reconsider Convention of States, what is referred to in the legislature as a "Smokeout." Constitutional attorney Rita Peters reacts to the footage and previews what's next.
