The CSEA Union is telling its members to vote NO because their pensions and other benefits will be taken away. It could also lead to severely restricting the 2nd Amendment (what little we have now). Funny enough, the two-page article in the monthly Union rag listed several reasons for voting NO, and 'gun rights' wasn't listed. :rolleyes: I'd scan the article but I already threw it in the recycle bin.

Term limits would be nice, but would probably not happen anytime soon. The other thing is that there's no pre-determined timeline, and it would cost so much money. They can twiddle their thumbs and drag their feet for months, getting paid the whole time.

So again, while it would be nice to impose certain changes, in this state there is no way to guarantee it would be beneficial to US.

EDIT: A thread on ARFCOM: NY Constitutional Convention 2017 - Page 2 - AR15.COM
I read the stuff in my dads csea newsletter and they are dead set against it. Who exactly wants this convention, 'cause it seems to me it is viewed with suspicion on both right and left?
