STATE OF NEW HAMPSHIRE
In the Year of Our Lord Two Thousand
A RESOLUTION rescinding the 1979 call for a federal constitutional convention.
Whereas, House Concurrent Resolution 8 of the 1979 legislative session called for a federal constitutional convention to propose an amendment requiring a balanced federal budget; and
Whereas, we believe such action to be undesirable at this time; now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the Senate, the House concurring:
That the request for a federal constitutional convention presented in House Concurrent Resolution 8 of 1979 be deemed null and void and hereby rescinded; and
That copies of this resolution be sent by the senate clerk to the secretary of state and presiding officers of both houses of the legislatures of each of the several states of the Union, the Speaker and Clerk of the United States House of Representatives, the President and the Secretary of the United States Senate, and to each member of the New Hampshire congressional delegation.
