House Concurrent Resolution No. 10, proposed by the Judiciary, Rules and Administration Committee of Idaho, seeks to make three separate applications to the United States Congress for the purpose of calling a convention of the states under Article V of the U.S. Constitution. The resolution emphasizes the need for amendments that would impose fiscal restraints on the federal government, require a balanced federal budget, limit the power and jurisdiction of the federal government, and establish term limits for federal officials and members of Congress. The resolution reflects concerns over the federal government's increasing national debt, overreach into state roles, and a perceived failure to adhere to the Constitution.

The resolution outlines a process for these applications, directing the Secretary of State to communicate with various federal and state officials to garner support for the proposed amendments. It establishes that these applications will remain active until at least two-thirds of the states have made similar applications or until December 31, 2031, whichever comes first. The resolution aims to empower state legislatures as guardians of liberty and advocates for constitutional amendments that would protect the interests of the citizens of Idaho and the broader United States.
