It’s Time Washington D.C. Heeded the Constitution
by State Sen. Dennis Kruse, IN-14
(read and comment here)
If Thomas Jefferson could come back and visit the United States for a day, would he recognize the government his wisdom and wordsmithing helped create?He would likely be confused, or outraged, by the overreaching power of the federal government. He would bristle at the coercive use of matching funding and unfunded federal mandates to make the states submit to the will of the federal system.Federal mandates and power grabs have been happening for years, but gaining momentum is a national movement to demand the federal government adhere to the designs of our forefathers and enforce the 10th Amendment. That amendment says powers not delegated to the federal government are reserved to the states or the people.Recently, I co-authored a resolution urging the federal government to end all state mandates beyond the scope of powers outlined by that 10th Amendment. We were joined by 19 other Republicans and six Democrats as co-authors. It passed in the Senate overwhelmingly, 44-3.
