Last week, the House of Representatives debated HCR 5027, a resolution that would add Kansas to the list of states calling for a constitutional convention. The purpose of the convention is to propose amendments to the constitution that would rein in the federal government through fiscal restrictions, limited powers and term limits.
I voted in favor of the measure. However, it failed to receive the two-thirds majority needed to pass. I will continue fighting to keep Washington in check and work on measures that preserve local control and state’s rights.
