The Federal Government of the United States of America is diminishing the sovereignty of individual states by ignoring the 10th Amendment.
The Tenth Amendment defines the total scope of federal power as being that which has been delegated by the people to the federal government, and also that which is absolutely necessary to advancing those powers specifically enumerated in the Constitution of the United States. The rest is to be handled by the state governments, or locally, by the people themselves.
The 10th Amendment:
"The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people."
We, the undersigned, call on the General Assembly of the Great State of North Carolina to adopt House Resolution 849, thus, supporting the State's RIGHT to claim sovereignty over certain powers under the TENTH AMENDMENT OF THE CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.
