Indiana State Senate President Dan Long has sent out a letter to fellow state legislators of both parties inviting them to convene at George Washington’s historic Mount Vernon home on December 7.


The authors of the Constitution included a state-led amendment option as a check on a runaway federal government. The dysfunction we see in Washington, D.C., provides an almost daily reminder of why this option is needed now more than ever.

Carden writes of Long’s goal:


He said the Mount Vernon Assembly will devise a “prudent and cautious process” other states can follow to ensure an Article V convention remains focused on specific subjects.

Long has indicated he supports a convention that would propose amendments limiting the power of Congress to impose taxes and regulate business.
