There's a push in states across the country, including Ohio, to amend the U.S. Constitution. A group called Convention of States Action is calling for a convention under Article V of the United States Constitution.

What are their objectives and what would it take to impel Congress to convene a Convention of States? On Cincinnati Edition, we talk with supporters and address questions from critics.
