Our sister institution, The Goldwater Institute in Phoenix, Arizona has just published my paper, Amending the Constitution by Convention: Practical Guidance for Citizens and Policymakers.

Using my prior research and new findings, it summarizes the rules you should use in drafting Article V applications, answering objections, heading off congressional interference, and so forth.

As I’ve said on this website before, some people claim the process of calling a convention for proposing amendments is full of uncertainty, but there is a surprising amount of historical and modern precedent, including court cases, clarifying most of the questions.
