Bill Caption
Claiming sovereignty under the Tenth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution over all powers not otherwise enumerated and granted to the federal government by the U.S. Constitution, serving notice to the federal government to halt and reverse certain mandates, and providing that certain federal legislation be prohibited or repealed.
Bill Analysis
SCR 3 is a resolution that would demand the federal government halt and reverse its practice of assuming powers and imposing mandates and laws upon the states for purposes not mentioned by the U.S. Constitution and all compulsory federal legislation not necessary to ensure rights guaranteed by the constitution be repealed.
Vote Recommendation Notes
This resolution enhances our limited government principle by giving notice to the federal government to respect the 10th amendment and renewing the proper balance of power between the state and federal governments as enumerated in the United States Constitution.
