I think this is the biggest issue here. I suggest supplementing the Enumerated
Powers Act effort with another approach. If it’s so difficult to pass new laws
compelling Congress to do what the Constitution already says why not try a different
tactic at the same time? If nothing else it will divide elitist organization along
another line of defense: repeal the 17th Amendment.

All the more reason grassroots efforts to oust elected officials that do not support a Constitutional government should be promoted and advanced.

There will be growing support for 10th Amendment resolutions as well as the Enumerated Powers Act, as more and more individuals become involved in the Tea Party movements, 9-12 projects, AFP and American Liberty Alliance, etc.

All of these groups need supported as catalysts for getting the Enumerated Powers Act passed and the individual 10th Amendment resolutions in each state.

Let’s be realistic. Something like this would never have flown during the Bush administration! So let’s not go blaming it on the Democrats. The simple fact is that most Congresscritters are just loathe to vote themselves less power.

Excellent article! Thanks for laying out the strategy your project is implementing to create awareness and make an impact in Washington. More People will hold their representatives accountable when they realize the power they have in the Constitution. Sadly now, many are ignorant of what it even says.

You can be sure the elected officials will start researching the document when Patriots across the country start sticking it under their nose, claiming the power it contains to restore the Republic of the United States.
