THE ASSEMBLY OF STATE LEGISLATURES
STATE LAWMAKERS - BIPARTISAN LEADERS
The Legislators that served on The Assembly served the citizens they represent by ensuring that the states were able to collectively check federal authority by calling a convention of the states for proposing amendments. The Assembly of State Legislatures convened in a politically pure environment comprised only of state legislators. That ensured that only the concerns of citizens were represented, not those of special interest groups.
​
The Assembly of State Legislatures (ASL) passed a set of proposed rules on June 17, 2016. This was the purpose of the ASL. The organization now remains in a dormant state until such a time as state legislatures deem it necessary to once again call a meeting. This website contains the details of our meetings, as well as the adopted rules. For information on how a convention for proposing amendments should function, see Article V.
