To apply for a convention of states under Article V of the Constitution of the United States to impose fiscal restraints on the federal government, to limit the power and jurisdiction of the federal government, and to limit the terms of office for federal officials and members of Congress.
South Dakota is formally requesting a convention of states under Article V of the U.S. Constitution to propose amendments that would impose fiscal limits on the federal government, reduce federal power, and impose term limits on Congress and federal officials. The bill reorganizes and expands South Dakota's existing laws governing how the state applies for and participates in such a constitutional convention, repealing outdated provisions and updating the rules for delegates and procedures.
