The convention aims to propose an amendment to the U.S. Constitution granting state legislatures authority to countermand and rescind federal mandates. The amendment would allow states to nullify federal laws, executive orders, judicial decisions, and regulations if 60% of state legislatures agree they adversely affect states' rights. The amendment would be sent to states for ratification if approved by the convention.
