Across U.S., states consider nullifying unconstitutional acts

While politicians in Washington D.C. continue to expand federal power far beyond its constitutional limits at a dizzying pace, lawmakers in state capitols across the U.S. will consider bills to stop encroachment and protect the basic rights of their citizens during the 2013 legislative season.

Across America, nearly every state will consider legislation to nullify federal power, dealing with a wide range of political issues.

Tenth Amendment Center executive director Michael Boldin says the sheer number of bills coming up this year surprised him.

“With Mitt losing, we expected a lot of states to look at nullifying the health care act this year, but we’ve seen more than anyone would have expected – and most state legislative sessions are yet to get underway. It’s not just one issue. From guns, to weed, to federal kidnapping, states are stepping up to say, ‘No!’”

The movement crosses party and ideological lines, touching on issues important to both the left and the right. The Kentucky legislature and New York Assembly will consider legalizing medical marijuana, with other states expected to join their efforts.

In Indiana, South Carolina and numerous other states, lawmakers will take up bills nullifying the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act. Six state legislatures already have bills filed that would prohibit cooperation with any attempts to indefinitely detain people without due process under provisions in the NDAA. Several states, including Wyoming, will consider stepping in to block any federal actions violating the Second Amendment. Florida, Indiana and Missouri will look at legislation prohibiting spying by domestic drones.

“A lot of people want to paint this as some kind of Republican movement to stop Obama. It’s not about party politics. It’s about freedom, liberty and controlling power. A wide coalition from left to right is supporting efforts to oppose indefinite detention in the NDAA. Heck, we expect four more states to consider weed legalization. Not exactly part of the Republican platform.” Boldin said. “It’s simple. Americans are saying, ‘We want to make decisions on issues at the local level. We don’t want mandates and dictates slammed down our throats from D.C. And we will not let the federal government spy on, grope and kidnap people with impunity.’”

To keep up with the crush of legislation, the Tenth Amendment Center has developed a legislative tracking page. You will find legislation organized by issue, with easy to read maps and links to the actual bills.You can access the page at tracking.tenthamendmentcenter.com.

LOL, Mike, that is such an underestimation and the example is next to collapse.

What, these states are figuring out they have been part of the crime and now its time to depart? Yes most today still reside in major deficit because they are unable to handle future obligations from past crimes of theft. Then you use them as the example of genuine because they support the cause you created and now they are the good guys?

 

I totally get what you are attempting to do and I do welcome it to the degree it goes after the cause. After all legislators helped facilitate the crimes themselves in each state. This the biggest crime is of these people and from what I see they are stealing more this year than last year, what for inflation? Is that the justifier to make the wrongs ok to have?

 

Most States are marked as Corporate entities themselves thus dissolving themselves of any accountability which is the loudest example we have today bar none.

 

Don’t communities need to clean up their act by nullifying there own crap? To then lead by this example?

 Sometimes you give the Federal Government too much authority by acknowledging they did a thing at all, Nullify illegal laws is just but when do we nullify a corrupt federal Government? and all these laws will disappear along with it.

Nullifying these false laws and leaving the idiots there do process will only facilitate more, how much energy do you have to get no where? What actually keeps them in place at all? Their use, and aren’t you making them useful? They are creating more laws than you can get nullified as a whole. This does say “admit defeat” and go for the juggler, go for the communities, clean up their own messes, teach other how this is done, expand this to states, clean up that mess and stop using the fed for a damn thing and outright nullify any existence of them. They will disappear because when we stop supporting them will they die.

 

Nope there is nothing in this statement that says easy, it says here is the heart and soul of the problem, start there.

 

When we nullify all corporate entities in all public arenas will we move forward. Capital is me and ism is them today and I am not their capital, I am my own producer and this recognition shall take place at my community level or it will not take place at all.

 

We would do very well to nullify most laws today, as most law makers creating this crap to begin with.

A Re- Public, having to do with a person, as persons of communities by the agreements they make, not by agreements only some enforce. We are the solution only when we create our own solutions of such a model for nothing was created without these understanding as well agreements ever.

 

Welcome to “Amiracle”

 

           “Amiracle” the land of the free from criminality by lessons because America was raped by child molesters. 

 

We will create a new land called “Americle” by life creation, live your wildest imagination free from molestation.
