SJ 11 Wyoming House · 2023 Regular Session

Convention of states.

Wyoming's SJ 11 is a joint resolution requesting Congress to call a state-led convention to propose constitutional amendments. It specifically seeks changes to restrain federal spending, limit federal government power, and impose term limits on federal officials and Congress. The resolution includes specific rules for the convention, such as prohibiting consideration of changes to the Bill of Rights and requiring one state, one vote. This is a procedural request (not a law) from Wyoming's legislature to Congress, aiming to build state support for a constitutional convention under Article V.
