I first swore an oath to support and defend the Constitution in 2006 at the Old North Bridge in Concord, Massachusetts. military oath of office stands apart from others around the world in that we swear an oath, not to a monarch, nor to a head of state, but to the Constitution. And if it doesn’t get out of committee, it doesn’t get on the floor.The officiant in such ceremonies often points out to the honoree and to those in attendance that the U.S. Chair Wichgers declared during the executive voting session on Jan 5th that they would not vote on AJR 77.
Which led to them not having enough support to pass AJR 77 out of committee, and apparently, they do NOT want a convention bill to be voted down.The Lord moved through various people, and as was reported to me, on Jan 5th, 2022, the very morning of the executive session to vote on AJR 77, Rep Ramthun miraculously pulled his sponsorship of this bill in both the Assembly and Senate, as well as pulled his sponsorship of Convention of States in both the Assembly and Senate!! Thank you to all of you who prayed, as a miracle happened. Timothy Ramthun (the one who asked for a copy of my speech, and who may be familiar to you because of his leadership on Election integrity in WI to the point that Robin Vos pulled Ramthun’s aid) also has always voted in favor of Convention bills. Scott Allen (the one who asked if the instructions for how conventions for ratification are called was in Article V or a different Article), who has always voted in favor of Art V Convention bills, wrote back to me that he will not vote in favor of this one. At least they are calling it what it really is in this bill. Because now in this hearing, several Reps, including this Senator Bradley (the author of this SCOTUS 9 bill), and legis counsel refer to this convention bill AJR 77 as calling for a “Constitutional Convention”. Unfortunately, these same Reps (apparently) have no more aversions to a con-con and are supporting it openly. For all of you who saw our 15 yr old grilled for 10 min by the senate committee months ago on this topic, to which our child held her ground and read the Constitution to the committee (Sen Bradley included), proving that there is only one type of convention, we DO seem to be making progress. Months ago, both the Assembly & Senate committees emphatically assured members of our family in the public hearings that there was NO WAY they would be in favor of a Constitutional Convention, but that an Article V convention was completely different from a con-con (because the lobbyists told them that).Let’s remember representatives are not royalty, they are actually our elected employees.Although it is stated that they adjourn part way through, stay with us and it will continue immediately after only a few seconds, and it’s worth watching, believe me.Perhaps it is because of the faith of a child expressed in prayer… Most intriguing of all, for the first time, we got some questions that seemed to indicate some of our points were penetrating. Thus this hearing took less time and it is quite powerful. Unlike the lobbyists, those testifying in this video are not out-of-state, nor paid – and are actual individual Americans who live in WI and have investigated the situation, read the Constitution, and are concerned that their elected employees will not protect our Constitution.And it furthermore makes me wonder, how many followers would the convention movement have if it was an honest movement? To be perfectly honest, I haven’t heard one convention supporter’s speech have substance on the Constitution, and I feel they are truly deceived. The really dedicated followers repeat the talking points of the lobbyists, some verbatim. Lobbyist followers often fill their speeches with their life histories, what they had for breakfast, or the problems in our country (which we already know) and then at the end of their speech, add “the solution is a convention”. I can only go from what I have personally seen at these many public hearings. Also missing were the lobbyist’s followers. Because it’s only an hour and 17 min long (instead of hours and hours, thankfully the snake oil salesmen were not there to flatter & bolster the legislature).
