Fw: Middle Peninsula Tea Party concerns:

In response to Gary Porter's remarks on a constitutional convention.:

 

I will make my comments  highlighted in yellow  and in italics  below – but I will be brief.   To do otherwise could result in a tome and require more time than you want to spend. If you want more information the resources abound but here are a few.

Sue Long
"Abide By The Constitution, Not Change It!"

From  Gary Porter:

Sue and Others,

 

I feel it incumbent to respond to the claims made in Sue Long's email:

 

Claim: "You know full well the results if we lose our Constitution.  And, a constitutional convention would put it on the chopping block."

 

Truth: This is a false claim that panders to emotion. An Article 5 Convention has no power to "chop" anything, it only has the power provided it in Article 5, which is to propose amendments to the Constitution, which then must be ratified by 38 states.  As to the first sentence, I'm not sure I "know full well" the effect of "loosing" a Constitution that is being routinely ignored, as those opposed to a COS claim.

 

Amendments would change the Constitution.  There is no guarantee as to what the amendments would be. Once convened the delegates decide what amendments to propose and vote on.   

 

Claim: "And, after all, his vote affects not just…Virginia but all Americans."   

 

Truth:  Senator Norment's vote affects only Virginia's application for an Article 5 convention.  To suggest otherwise is blatant fearmongering and patently untrue. 

 

Yes,  his vote affects only Virginia's application for an Article 5 convention.  But that is not what I said.   If  Virginia petitions Congress to call a convention,  this affects every American. 

 

 

Claim: "…in 2004 [Senator Norment] voted for a resolution that states:

"The operations of a convention are unknown and the apportionment and the selection of

delegates, method of voting in the convention, and other procedural details are not specified in Article V… the prudent course requires the General Assembly to rescind and withdraw all past applications for a convention to amend the Constitution …

 

Nothing has changed since then.  So why the flip flop?"

 

Truth: Everything has changed since 2004.  In 2004, the Convention of States Project had not yet been initiated.  The COS Project plan places limits on what types of amendments will be deemed in order at a convention: only amendments which serve to place fiscal restraints on the federal government, which reduce the power and jurisdiction of the federal government, and/or which set limits on the terms of its officials.  Without these restrictions the convention delegates would be free to discuss and propose whatever amendments 51% of the delegations deem appropriate.  Nevertheless, such amendments would still require ratification by 38 states.  With these restriction, however, the 34 delegations associated with COS Project-compliant applications, which will constitute a super-majority, will determine whether a proposed amendment comports with the aforementioned goals and will be entered into the agenda.

 

Sounds good –but the Constitution does not say that. What it says is that the states petition Congress to make the call -  period.  No mention is made of anything the states can do other than that. 

 

 Ratification could be changed as it was with the 1787 convention when it changed the rules about who ratifies (from legislators to conventions) AND the required number for ratification from ALL states to 3/4. What could happen in a convention today? Ratification by a simple majority?  The president's signature?  

 

It is important that both sides of this important issue be heard, discussed, and considered.  I am happy to debate this issue with anyone at anytime.

 

Gary Porter

In Virginia, Senator Tommy Norment is key because he is the Senate Majority Whip.   He could be the deciding factor as to whether Virginia does or doesn't apply to Congress to call an Article V convention.  

 

So please contact him in opposition to a constitutional  convention, aka Article V convention, Convention of States, Balanced Budget Amendment  et al.

You don't have to be an authority.   Just print out one of the attached articles  and get it to him with a note asking him to consider the matter.  

 

VA Senator Tommy Norment's district covers Gloucester County (All); Hampton City (Part); Isle of

Wight County (Part); James City County (Part); King and Queen County (All); King William County

(All); New Kent County (All); Poquoson City (All); Suffolk City (Part); Surry County (Part); York County

(Part) but he is amenable to getting messages from those who just sign their name without their address.

And, after all, his vote affects not just only all in Virginia but all Americans. 

 

As a member of the Senate Rules Committee in 2015, he voted twice to pass constitutional convention bills out of committee instead of leaving them there to die.

One was for Mike Farris' Convention of States and one was for a Balanced Budget Amendment.

This was in spite of the fact that in 2004 he voted for a resolution that states:

"The operations of a convention are unknown and the apportionment and the selection of

delegates, method of voting in the convention, and other procedural details are not specified in

Article V… the prudent course requires the General Assembly to rescind and withdraw all past

applications for a convention to amend the Constitution …"

Nothing has changed since then. So why the flip flop?

Middle Peninsula Tea Party concerns:

Friends and Patriots: 

Several issues we would be prudent to take PRO-ACTIVE looks at coming to us whether we like it or not!  

First

 A new 'WATER Resources Plan' is being proposed by the state and they are asking for COMMENTS until the 8th of MAY. We don't want to get in to a RE-ACTIVE situation as we did with our county COMPREHENSIVE PLANS.  Fore-warned is Fore-armed!  
It is suggested you review the State Water Resources Plan, found at www.deq.virginia.gov.  This is available for Public Comment through May 8.  In the Plan you may find it interesting to look at the "snapshot" for your local counties.  Obviously, DEQ is using models to guide them to 2040.  Just how good is the information being fed into the computer for it to spit out the desired information??? Are the issues we were told impacts our water quality on the middle peninsula being addressed?  Are the solutions appropriate to the expressed concerns? Are the concerns realistic?  

Is this something people feel we should investigate further? We have heard so much about water from: 

• extreme drought in CA (http://time.com/3774881/carly-fiorina-california-drought-environmentalists/), 
  
• rainwater runoff fees (http://www.forbes.com/sites/travisbrown/2014/01/03/when-it-rains-it-pours-tax-dollars-in-maryland/)
  
• the possible use & intrusion of smart meters
• problems with the  groundwater sources most of us use.

Where does the TRUTH lie?  Would it behoove us to learn more BEFORE the Water Plan is adopted? Is anyone interested in pursuing this further? Let me know what you think  ~ Sue Sherrill 804-815-9329 <suesjerrill8159329@gmail.com> 

 Second

Sue Long has asked me to pass the following along. Your input to Senator Norment is crucial if you believe opening the Constitution to change could be a Pandora's Box! Pleases let him know how you feel.

 

You know full well the results if we  lose our Constitution.  And, a constitutional convention would put it on the chopping block .

 

In Virginia, Senator Tommy Norment is key because he is the Senate Majority Whip.   He could be the deciding factor as to whether Virginia does or doesn't apply to Congress to call an Article V convention.   

 

So please contact him in opposition to a constitutional  convention, aka Article V convention, Convention of States, Balanced Budget Amendment  et al.

You don't have to be an authority.   Just print out one of the attached articles  and get it to him with a note asking him to consider the matter.

Wight County (Part); James City County (Part); King and Queen County (All); King William County

Delegate Taylor's Bipartisan Leadership Spurs Job Creation, Infrastructure, and Cleaner Environment

For Immediate Release                                                                                            Legislative Aide: Brenda Roberts 4/20/15                                                                                                               (757) 705-4113 brendaroberts003@gmail.com        Team,  We have some exciting news to share!  Bipartisan Leadership Spurs Job Creation, Infrastructure, and Cleaner Environment.   United Parcel Service (UPS) recently announced plans to build 15 compressed natural gas (CNG) fueling stations to support the purchase and planned use of 1,400 new CNG vehicles over the next year.     "UPS, as a company, carefully evaluates the metrics of state regulations and infrastructure prior to making a decision to convert fleets to cleaner natural gas," said Dominic Jordan, UPS Government Affairs director.  "Previously, Virginia lacked the necessary incentives.  In 2014 that shifted with Delegate Taylor's passed legislation.  The new laws were instrumental in our plans to move forward."    Twelve of the CNG stations will be in new natural gas vehicle deployment areas, and three will replace existing CNG stations with more robust, higher capacity equipment.  Richmond, Virginia is one of the cities selected for the fleet infrastructure that can utilize lower carbon intensity fuel sources and increase experience using alternative fuels in freight transport applications.   "I applaud United Parcel Service (UPS) for courageously leading and making a profound monetary commitment in Virginia, as they step forward and convert their Virginia truck fleet to natural gas." said Delegate Taylor, "I also want to thank my colleagues in the House of Delegates and Senate for supporting and helping set the conditions for the private sector to thrive, in creating new jobs, cleaner air, and forward thinking infrastructure. This is what government is suppose to do"       A list of Delegate Taylor's natural gas legislation: House Bill 341: Exempts overweight permit fees to converting natural gas trucks House Bill 345: Establishes a natural gas mechanic certification in Virginia House Bill 340: Allows localities to tap into revolving fund to convert fleets    Please help us continue to promote and pass legislation and policies that benefit all Virginians.  Donate here.         STAY CONNECTED          Del. Scott Taylor was elected as delegate for Virginia's 85th District in 2013. He is an entrepreneur, Iraq War veteran, and former Navy SEAL. Taylor is a frequent guest on the Fox News Channel discussing foreign policy, national security, and military and veterans' issues.
