Congresswoman Harriet Hageman (R-Wyo.), a strict constructionist and constitutionalist, is asked about her position on a constitutional convention, under Article V, to propose changes to the Constitution would be dangerous. “It’s too dangerous. It’s terribly, terribly dangerous. I don’t think that we could control it,” Representative Hageman replies. “My view is how about if we enforce the provisions of the Constitution that we already have and then we’ll talk about what changes need to be made.” Rep. Hageman addresses arguments about a balanced budget amendment and the importance of preserving the Constitution for future generations.
