Let's Take a Meeting: Running the Numbers [Bumped] Idaho first to sign law aimed at health care plan Idaho took the lead in a growing, nationwide fight against health care overhaul Wednesday when its governor became the first to sign a measure requiring the state attorney general to sue the federal government if residents are forced to buy health insurance. Similar legislation is pending in 37 other states. Total states involved to date: 38 State legislatures needed to convene a Constitutional Convention: 34 State legislatures needed to agree for an amendment to the Constitution proposed in a Constitutional Convention to be ratified: 38 This path to amending the Constitution has never been used, but there's always a first time. In any case, the President has no power to veto any proposal or ratification coming out of the process. In the nearly 225 years since the adoption of the Constitution, we've never held another convention. Maybe it's time. Maybe that's why so many fear it but it seems preferable to the more contentious way of resolving Constitutional conflicts. We've done that once before... in 1861. Once was enough.
