\"Standing<\/p>\n

You\u00a0Arkansas residents should\u00a0raise a fuss over this. In your state, the Convention of States resolution (HJR 1003) came up for a vote, and seventeen representatives either voted \u201cNon-Vote\u201d or voted \u201cPresent.\u201d<\/p>\n

Present? \u00a0Really? \u00a0Is this kindergarten roll call on the first day of school?<\/p>\n

No! \u00a0Our nation is at stake, and we need legislators to take a stand.<\/p>\n

The resolution technically failed, but they\u2019re going to vote again on it Friday at 11 am. \u00a0That means we have to act NOW to \u00a0gain 6 additional votes to get\u00a0the 51-vote majority.<\/p>\n

Here are\u00a04\u00a0things you can do:<\/p>\n

1. Please CALL or E-MAIL every legislator who either voted NO, or who stood on the sidelines with a NON-VOTE or PRESENT.<\/strong> You can say something like this:\u00a0\u201cI was disappointed to see you not vote YES on the only Constitutional solution to our out-of-control Federal government. Please support the Convention of States HJR 1003 resolution on the upcoming vote for reconsideration.\u201d \u00a0(You might not want to compare them to kindergarteners!)<\/p>\n

2. If your own representative voted Yes (see below), send him or her a kind email with a short message<\/strong>: \u201cThanks for supporting the Convention of States HJR 1003. Please continue to stand with us for the re-vote.\u201d<\/p>\n

3. Send this blog post\u00a0to 10 family and friends in Arkansas to ask them to stand with you in contacting these legislators.<\/strong><\/p>\n

4. \u00a0Post this blog post on Facebook and Twitter to spread the news!<\/strong><\/p>\n
