Hi everybody Cheryl Ackison here.

Welcome to another edition of Full Measure After Hours.

Today the head of Convention of State's action, Mark Meckler, tells why he thinks this constitutional

action can save the country.

Today we'll be talking about a fascinating movement that I didn't know much about,

but I've been curious about it for a couple of years as I'd heard about it here and there.

And it was really interesting to go and dig in and learn more.

It's the Convention of States Movement.

I'm interviewing Mark Meckler, head of Convention of States Action.

By the way, he has a really interesting backstory you'll hear. of Convention on State's Action, and the Convention of State's idea as he described

it sounded really well thought out and really good.

But stay tuned until the end because during my research I learned not only

is there some bipartisan support for this idea, but there is also some bipartisan support against it.

and I started by asking what he did before the Convention of State's effort.

So top line, before I got involved in the Tea Party, I was an attorney.

I was practicing at home.

My specialty was internet advertising law of all things

Raising my kids teaching him to ride horses play soccer is a classic work from home dad. It was a perfect life in a small town in Northern California.

I stumbled into the Tea Party in the Tea Party. I ended up founding Tea Party Patriots

which grew to be the largest Tea Party organization in the country.
