Texas Gov. Greg Abbott is going big in the new year — calling for the states to come together to add nine amendments to the United States Constitution.

Under the Constitution, "the legislatures of two thirds of the several states" can "call a convention for proposing amendments," and Abbott is proposing that the time has come to do so.

"There have been many casualties in Washington, D.C.’s war on the rule of

law," the 90-page document explains. "But perhaps no one has lost as much as the States."

"Restoring the Rule of Law With States Leading the Way" details his plan.
