I wasn't aware that a state Governor could propose an amendment at the federal level, that would be quite a move on his part. Is it possible it's just a PR stun

  He hasn't proposed an amendment, he's proposed proposing an amendment. An actual proposal would require 2/3 approval by either Congress (both houses) or states' legislatures.

  It's a (likely to pass) bill before the California legislature to call for a state constitutional convention. If 2/3 of the states pass such a measure, a convention may be called after which 3/4 of the states may ratify the proposed amendment. It's a means of amendment specified in Article V of the Constitution that can be undertaken without involving the federal Congress.
