Adopt the Faithful Delegate to Federal Article V Convention Act

Nebraska's LB 259 establishes rules for the state's delegation to a potential federal Article V convention, which could propose constitutional amendments. It requires the Legislature to elect delegates and alternates from legislative caucuses, mandate they take an oath to follow legislative instructions, and prohibit voting on amendments outside the scope approved by the Legislature. Delegates must adhere strictly to instructions adopted by the Legislature, and any vote deemed "unauthorized" (outside approved scope) would be invalid. This bill directly affects Nebraska legislators selected to serve as delegates or alternates at such a convention.
