On January 22, 2026, a vote of the Kansas House of Representatives officially made Kansas the 20th state to join the Convention of States movement! Rita Peters and Andrew Lusch interview the volunteer patriots who worked hard to make it happen. PLUS, COS President Mark Meckler and Regional Director Deanna Becket join the broadcast to give their instant reaction to a historic day.
Calling a convention may not be easy, but it is possible. And the grassroots won’t back down until it happens.The team faced multiple unusual obstacles, including a now-defunct state provision purporting to raise the threshold for passing Article V applications above the constitutional requirement, but never gave up.
On Thursday, their efforts finally paid off with an 80–42 vote in the Kansas House, making Kansas an official applicant for an Article V convention.
