HI HR6

Requests Hawaii's congressional delegation to introduce and support an amendment to Article V of the U.S. Constitution allowing two-thirds of states to directly propose specific constitutional amendments.

Seeks to replace the current state-initiated process whereby Congress calls a constitutional convention upon application of two-thirds of state legislatures, which the resolution characterizes as "potentially open-ended and therefore too cumbersome."

Maintains that the existing requirement for three-fourths of all states to ratify any proposed constitutional amendment remains an adequate safeguard against poorly considered amendments regardless of their source.

Directs transmission of certified copies of the resolution to Hawaii's congressional delegation and the chief executive officer of each house of every state legislature in the United States.
