SR 112 Pennsylvania Senate · 2025-2026 Regular Session

A Concurrent Resolution petitioning the Congress of the United States to call a Convention for proposing amendments pursuant to Article V of the Constitution of the United States limited to proposing amendments that impose fiscal restraints on the Federal Government, limit the power and jurisdiction of the Federal Government and limit the terms of office for its officials and for members of Congress.

Pennsylvania's SR 112 is a resolution petitioning Congress to call an Article V constitutional convention focused solely on three specific amendments: imposing fiscal restraints on the federal government, limiting federal power and jurisdiction, and restricting terms for federal officials and members of Congress. The resolution explicitly prohibits the convention from considering changes to the Bill of Rights and includes detailed instructions to ensure it stays within these boundaries. It also specifies that Pennsylvania's delegates will be chosen by the state legislature and bound to oppose any proposals outside the designated topics. This is a procedural request to Congress, not a law, and does not directly affect any residents or entities.
