The Minnesota House introduced legislation, House File 997 and 998, on February 19th, 2009 to re-assert our State Sovereignty under the Tenth Amendment to the Constitution of the United States. This legislation got ignored and died in committee. We will be making another attempt to get this legislation signed into law during the 2010 legislative session. We are asking for your support to call, email or contact your State Representatives in person and insist they support this legislation!
The Constitution applies to the federal government. Its sole purpose was to spell out what the government can do. The key principle of the Constitution is quite simple: positive grant.
Unfortunately, this is not a phrase that many of us hear in daily banter these days. But, it’s not a complicated principle at all. What it means is this – the US federal government is authorized to exercise only those powers which are specifically given to it in Article I, Section 8 of the Constitution. Nothing more, and nothing less.
The following is the list of current Minnesota State Representatives. Those indicated as HOUSE AUTHOR have chosen to HONOR their oath of office taken in January 2009 to support and defend the Constitution of the United States and allow “We the People” to regain our sovereignty under the Tenth Amendment. The remaining State Representatives have chosen not to honor their oath of office to support and defend the Constitution!
This substantive information is given to help people make choices at the voting booths for Public Servants that will support and defend the Constitution, including the Tenth Amendment!
