HB 2931 Arizona House · 57th Legislature - First Regular Session

convention of states; delegation; oath

HB 2931 requires Arizona's delegates to an Article V constitutional convention to swear an oath committing to only discuss amendments within the "Legal Convention Scope" - defined as topics specified by Congress in its call and supported by at least two-thirds of states that applied for the convention. Delegates who violate this oath face immediate recall by the Arizona Legislature, a $5,000 civil penalty, and potential felony charges for voting on unrelated amendments. The bill establishes clear mechanisms for enforcing this restriction, including mandatory reporting of violations to state leaders and the Attorney General. It directly affects Arizona's convention delegates and the state's ability to control their participation in a potential national constitutional convention.
