As we've contacted state legislators asking them to pledge to support our proposed amendments, we have received feedback from them expressing more enthusiastic support for our
first
four proposed amendments than for our last two. Our last two amendments would have adopted a national initiative process and made some changes to the constitutional amendment process. Because many state legislators only felt comfortable supporting our first four amendments, we have scaled back to focus only on the first four
amendments. We are doing this to ensure we have the
best chance of success adopting the most important reforms. The four remaining amendments we are focusing on are: 1) a balanced budget amendment; 2) a congressional term
limits amendment; 3) a judicial term limits / retention elections
amendment; and 4) an amendment prohibiting unfunded mandates.
