Massachusetts rescinds all prior applications to Congress for an Article V Convention to propose amendments to the U.S. Constitution.
The Massachusetts General Court rescinds all previous applications to the U.S. Congress for a convention to propose amendments to the U.S. Constitution under Article V. This includes applications from 1931 to 1977, whether for specific amendments or a general convention. The resolution mandates the Clerks of the House and Senate to send copies to the U.S. House Clerk. The General Court has not made such an application in nearly 50 years, and current policy reforms may no longer be supported.
