I should have included a “master reset” provision with respect to state lawmakers being rotated into federal Senate seats. In other words, in addition to state voters (state lawmakers?) possibly recalling bad-apple Senators, maybe a provision to allow 2/3 majority of states to remove a given federal senator.
Note that the states would be more closely involved with putting new justices on the Supreme Court with the “rotation” system. Letting the feds approve of justices is arguably the biggest mistake in the Constitution. And the ill-conceived 17th Amendment is always at the scene of Senate problems.
Again, the only reason that people are interested in controlling the federal government is because of the tsunami of unconstitutional federal taxes now going through DC.
I ran across this one back in the Eighties when it was called the Utah Option. (I have no idea how it may be related to the state of Utah.)
The idea was that if the legislatures of two-thirds of the states voted a Resolution of No-Confidence in the federal government, that federal government is dissolved. New elections would be called within 60 days for President, Vice-President, the House and all Senate seats regardless of two-year class. (This presupposes that the 17th Amendment is not repealed. If it is repealed, the states would replace all senators in whatever mode they saw fit.) There would be a Dracula Clause forbidding any member of the old government from serving in the new government.
Following the election, all federal judges would be fired and replaced by the new administration. All term and civil service protection would be revoked for all bureaucrats from the old administration.
This would be the ultimate reboot button short of revolution.
