Constitutional Convention Set to Begin
The House and Senate this morning adopted an order calling for a Constitutional Convention to begin Wednesday, May 11 at 1 pm. According to the State House News Service, a spokeswoman for Senate President Robert Travaglini said the convention will likely be gaveled in and immediately recessed until the fall.
The Health Care Amendment, approved by the Legislature sitting in 2003-2004, was automatically put on the ConCon Calendar and needs 50 votes out of 200 to advance to the ballot in November 2006.
Last Friday, Campaign Manager Michael Carr and Field Organizer Lesley Hawkins delivered a legislative letter to Beacon Hill, updating Senators and Representatives on the campaign’s progress. This weekend we’ll be heading to the Democratic convention in Lowell-- look for us there.
