Convention of states for proposing an amendment to the United States Constitution: federal balanced budget.

This measure would constitute an application to the United States Congress to call a constitutional convention pursuant to Article V of the United States Constitution for the limited purpose of requiring the federal government to operate under a balanced budget. This measure would constitute a continuing application for such a convention until the legislatures of 23 of the states have made applications on the same subject and the convention has been called by the Congress of the United States.
