On February 22 at Duquesne University, the Senate State Government
Committee will be holding a hearing regarding the possibilities of holding a
constitutional convention. A convention could address issues Pennsylvanians have
been talking about since the pay raise, such as changing the size of the
legislature, enacting term limits and setting new redistricting guidelines.
The Committee will be hearing from selected experts in constitutional law
and from a few established reform-minded organizations, but has not yet called
for any input from the general public.
Participate in the latest PACleanSweep poll and tell us what YOU think
about a constitutional convention. Please forward this message to as many
Pennsylvanians as possible - we can't let the Legislature move forward on this
without us!

Can we get a petition and e-mail campaign started to pressure our state representatives and senators, letting them know that we want a Constitutional Convention so that items such as property tax reform are addressed immediately rather than later? They will only respond to voter pressure.
We need an ongoing campaign with funding and continued pressure. Emails and petitions will not do it.
We need a governor who will call for one, and shut down congress until it happens. Sgt. Robert Mansfield
