The bill, H. 3395, is a joint resolution from the South Carolina General Assembly that aims to rescind all previous applications made by the General Assembly to the U.S. Congress for calling a convention to propose amendments to the U.S. Constitution. This resolution asserts that these applications, regardless of their timing or purpose—whether for a limited or general convention—are to be considered null and void as if they had never been passed.
Additionally, the resolution encourages other states that have made similar applications to Congress to also withdraw their requests for a constitutional convention. The President of the Senate is tasked with disseminating copies of this resolution to various state and federal officials, ensuring that the message is communicated widely. The resolution will take effect once it is approved by the Governor.
