    Ballot initiatives and article V convention! No compact is involved other than the mutual interests of states that have passed similar ballot initiatives, such as cannabis legalization. However, usually when an article V convention is imminent, Congress will amend the Constitution first to save face. Consider the history of alcohol prohibition from a several states viewpoint. Either way ballot initiatives are the way to go, and some forward-looking state legislatures will even pass similar laws on their own.
