Weekly Town Hall – Julianne Young, Former Idaho State Representative, The Fallacies and Risks of an Article V Convention and why we shouldn’t have one.

February 25 @ 6:30 pm - 8:30 pm

Julianne Young, former Idaho State Representative for Legislative District 30 Seat B, and current candidate for the same position, will be discussing what an Article V Convention is and the risks associated with one.

Unfortunately our Constitution is under attack by entities calling for an Article V Convention and Idaho jest became part of the problem.  Idaho House:Bill HCR 25 calling for a Article V Convention for a balanced budget amendment was just passed by the Idaho House of Representatives.  As of this writing (02/08/26), the Bill still needs to be passed by the Idaho Senate to be adopted.  Regardless of how desirable a Balanced Budget Amendment may seem, achieving them through an Article V Convention (also called a Convention of States or ConCon) is not the answer, there are too many risks involved.

Julianne will talk to us about the fallacies and risks of an Article V Convention and why we shouldn’t have one.
