I did a whole post on this in my blog a bit ago, but being a user who hasn't posted anything here, I have no abilities to post links or pics. However, below is the name of the resolution they passed. Google the bill. Ben Swann also did an article on it too (where I found out about it). What they're calling for in the call for the resolution makes me wanna puke.
Hawaii Resolution: House Concurrent Resolution 114
The four amendments Hawaii wants to pass are as follows (from the original text):
(1) A declaration of the constitutionality of the federal Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, including the individual mandate requiring the purchase of health insurance;
(2) An amendment to Article I, Section 5, to prohibit the super-majority cloture requirement under Rule 22 of the United States Senate for ending floor debates and filibusters, to facilitate a more reasonable voting standard for cloture;
(3) An amendment abolishing the electoral college established under Article II, Section 1, and providing for the direct election of the United States President and Vice President by voters; and
(4) An amendment to Article II, Section 2, Clause 2, to require that Senate confirmations of appointments of officers of the United States be made by a simple majority vote within sixty days of the nomination…”
Any thoughts from the community?
