The bill H. 3558 aims to amend the South Carolina Code of Laws by revising Article 23 of Chapter 1, Title 1, which pertains to calls for constitutional amending conventions made to Congress. The bill proposes to retitle the article and introduces new sections that define essential terms and outline the qualifications, appointment process, oath, and duties of commissioners who will represent South Carolina at an Article V convention. Key definitions include terms such as "commissioner," "delegation," and "interim commissioner," which clarify the roles and responsibilities of those involved in the convention process.

Additionally, the bill establishes specific qualifications for commissioners, including citizenship, residency, age, and voter registration status, while also prohibiting individuals with certain backgrounds, such as federal lobbyists or those with felony convictions, from serving. The bill outlines the appointment process for commissioners, their compensation, and the procedures for handling vacancies. It also includes provisions for the advisory committee that oversees the commissioners, ensuring compliance with the commissioning resolution and addressing any potential misconduct. The act will take effect upon the Governor's approval.
