This legislative bill, SF No. 566, introduced by Senators Bahr, Koran, Drazkowski, Mathews, and Dornink in Minnesota, calls for a convention to propose amendments to the U.S. Constitution. The purpose of these amendments is to impose limits on federal government spending, reduce federal power and jurisdiction, and set term limits for federal officials and Congress members. The bill points out issues such as national debt caused by federal spending, federal overreach into state affairs, and misinterpretations of the Constitution. This resolution, under Article V of the U.S. Constitution, is a formal request to Congress to organize a convention of states focused on these amendments. It is a continuing effort, remaining in effect until two-thirds of state legislatures have submitted similar requests, superseding all previous related applications. Copies of this resolution are to be sent to key federal and state officials to notify them of Minnesota's position.
