Wyoming legislature seeks a constitutional convention to propose term limits for Congress.

The Wyoming legislature applies to Congress to call a convention of the states to propose an amendment limiting terms for members of the U.S. House and Senate. The application emphasizes that states, not Congress, have the power to name delegates and set rules for the convention. The Wyoming legislature reserves the right to recall its delegates. The proposed amendment would be limited to term limits and would not affect the Bill of Rights. The Wyoming legislature recommends ratification by state legislatures, not special conventions.
