I guess the name is meant to imply they are really focused on changing the Constitution in every conceivable way. Jonathan Chait helpfully collects the most recent examples:
- The Flag Desecration Amendment
- Balanced budget amendment
- Supermajority to raise taxes
- “Parental rights” amendment – the right of parents to “raise their children as they see fit, introduced last year by Jim DeMint and Peter Hoekstra.
- Human life amendment, banning abortion
- The Federal Marriage Amendment, banning gay marriage
- Believing that the DC Voting Rights Act was unconstitutional, Lisa Murkowski proposed an amendment giving the District a single voting representative.
- Last year, Jim DeMint introduced a term limits amendment (3 terms in the House, 2 in the Senate).
- Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) told The Hill on Monday that Congress “ought to take a look at” changing the 14th Amendment, which gives the children of illegal immigrants a right to U.S. citizenship.
McConnell’s statement signals growing support within the GOP for the controversial idea, which has also recently been touted by Senate Minority Whip Jon Kyl (R-Ariz.) and Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.).
Added to the necessary questions queue: To save us some time, which parts of the Constitution do you actually like and wish to preserve?
