Reminder

The US Congress can propose any type of amendment at any time. If and when it does, it must then be ratified by the states (@75%+) in order to become law of the land. So why hasn't the Congress proposed tons of amendments already? Because it has been corrupted by private money and special interests. The reason the Article V Convention cannot and will not be controlled by the same money/interests is because delegates are proposing amendment language (a few lines of legal text) and cannot make a career out of it. They'll do it and go home, and then the ratification process of debate reveals what 8 out of 10 Americans can agree on--an end to gerrymandered voting districts, for instance.
