up where the sun don't shine.
On April 11, 2011, Alaska overwhelmingly passed not one but TWO bills asserting Alaska state sovereignty.
The Federal courts have LONG pissed on State's Rights, disregarding the fact that the states entered into a compact with the Federal government, that allows the states to be an "individual experiment" with the Federal Government limited in scope.
Article VI states: "A federal statute, regulation, presidential executive order, or secretarial order that is unconstitutional or was not properly adopted in accordance with federal statutory authority may not be considered to preempt a state law."
The Alaskan state attorney general will have the jurisdiction over federal crap that conflicts with Alaskan State Law! And Alaska went one step further in defining and limiting that open-ended federal supremacy clause that the federal courts and activist judges run to.
"Federal statutes, regulations, presidential executive orders, and secretarial orders that are unconstitutional or not properly adopted in accordance with constitutional and statutory authority are not laws of the United States for the purposes of the Supremacy Clause; and federal regulations, presidential executive orders, and secretarial orders that are not properly adopted in accordance with statutory authority may not preempt state laws that are not in conflict with federal statutory authority, regulations, and secretarial orders properly adopted in accordance with that statutory authority."
Alaska also passed a bill opting out of ObummerKare: "it is the policy of the State of Alaska that a person has the right to accept or decline any offered mode of obtaining health care services without penalty or threat of penalty."
Our Founder's realized the need for State's Rights in entering into the compact of the Constitution and becoming a state, otherwise, why become a state if they are going to be dictated to by a tyrannical federal government? That is why we HAVE the Tenth Amendment as well as a Constitution that LIMITS the scope of the Federal Government.
Kudos to those with the guts to take this step forward for the Land of the Last Frontier!

Kudos to Alaska!! Now it begins. Hopefully other states will declare the same.
ReplyDeleteIt's about damn time that the states read the Constitution.
Hardnox,
ReplyDeleteI was EXCITED reading that! It is high time that the State's starting flexing their muscle ala the Constitution.
Red Ivan,
ReplyDeleteI nuked your post because it was stupid (as usual). Try reading the Constitution and the Federalist Papers before you post your stupidity.
Good for them!
ReplyDeleteOne town in Maine (and two or three to follow) has passed a law stating that the fed's new food laws do not apply to them seeing as they are sovereign entities.
Good shit. About time a state other than Texas is telling them to piss off. Post Ivan's screeching. I'd like to see it,or e-mail it to me.
ReplyDeleteClyde,
ReplyDeleteAgreed. Make the Feds defend their bullsh*t in courts across the land and keep tying them up in court. Use the Left's tactics on the Feds!
Clyde,
ReplyDeleteIvan's post was subhuman at best but I'll post em from now on.
You don't have to with all of them,as we regulars know what he's like,but some of your newer fans may get a chuckle out of them.
ReplyDeleteEmailed this to myself.
ReplyDeleteGoing to forward it to my state rep.
Yep.
