I ask that this bill be brought forth immediatley and put into the Emergency slot:

Resolution Regarding Constitutional Amendments

1.) No senator shall propose a constitutional amendment until the conclusion of the Constitutional Convention
2.) No constitutional amendments shall be voted upon until the conclusion of the Constitutional Convention

I agree with the Bill in principal, however I believe it should be slightly re-written. As it stands, it could conceivably extend to a Senator proposing a constitutional amendment at the ConCon as it doesn't specifically refer to amendments being proposed only within the Senate. Perhaps instead we could move:

1. That this Senate shall not debate constitutional amendments for the duration of the Constitutional Convention.
2. That this Senate shall not vote on proposed constitutional amendments until the conclusion of the Constitutional Convention.
