West Virginia HCR11 urges Congress to call a convention to propose constitutional amendments requiring natural born U.S.

West Virginia HCR11 urges Congress to call a convention of the states to propose amendments to the U.S. Constitution. The proposed amendments would require that persons elected to the U.S. House of Representatives and Senate be natural born citizens with sole and exclusive U.S. citizenship. It also seeks to mandate that federal judges and Cabinet Secretaries meet the same citizenship criteria. This resolution aims to aggregate applications from states to achieve the necessary two-thirds majority for such a convention under Article V of the U.S. Constitution.
