Joint house resolution calling for the repeal of the 17th Amendment

This joint resolution from the Montana Legislature requests the United States Congress to propose a constitutional amendment. The proposed amendment would repeal the 17th Amendment, which currently allows for the direct popular election of U.S. Senators. If adopted, Senators would instead be selected by their respective state legislatures. The proposal also outlines that Senators' primary duty would be to represent their state government, their salaries would be paid by their state, and they could be removed by a majority vote of their state legislature.
