I met with my state representative for about an hour this past week.

He’s a businessman, a nurseryman with 1,000 acres under cultivation and 150 employees. He knows well the heavy hand of the EPA, and employee diktats from Washington.

I spoke of Article V and the necessity of 17th amendment repeal. Keeping radical leftists out of the court system, his future influence regarding treaties and secretarial appointments got his attention. He asked about the history of the 17th, and more about its aftermath.

To my surprise, he told me of FL house and senate resolutions headed for a joint committee to express interest in calling for an Article V state amendment convention.

I gave him a copy of Levin’s Liberty Amendments.

There is hope.

I’m sure he’d love to have more power. Too bad it comes at the expense of the PEOPLE.
