HJR1056 repealed the expiration date of a previously-passed resolution allowing Oklahoma to send a delegation to a “gathering of states” to create guidelines for a BBA and/or COS Article V convention.
The Oklahoma State House of Representatives passed HJR1056 on March 23, 2022 by a vote of 66 to 19. We have assigned pluses to the nays because the state’s application for a constitutional conventional dangerously permits what Article V of the U.S. Constitution describes as a “Convention for proposing Amendments” or second constitutional convention. This legislation removes the expiration date for their application for constitutional convention, which is dangerously irresponsible.
