Verrrry interesting. But useless.
The state governments of Idaho and Wyoming are working on a proposed new Constitutional amendment that would basically restate the 10th Amendment.
This is useless for three reasons:
(1) The 10th Amendment was supposed to accomplish this purpose, and it has been completely ignored and violated by the Feds since 1861. Madman Lincoln destroyed the Federal structure along with half the country, and there's no way to bring it back.
(2) Because most people understand that the document only serves the purposes of the Soviet-front ACLU, it's impossible to motivate enough states to pass any meaningful amendment.
(3) Even if you could pass this amendment, it would only make things worse. A new amendment will only give the black-robed saboteurs a new piece of text to interpret backwards, a new mechanism to expand tyranny and serve our enemies. ¶ 7:27 AM
The measure urges Congress to approve amendments to narrow the scope of the Commerce Clause and broaden the 10th Amendment on states’ rights. Among other changes, the proposal calls for adding a sentence to the Constitution declaring that “any power claimed by the Congress shall be construed narrowly by all courts so as not to infringe upon or limit the powers reserved to the States,” and adding that Congress has “no authority … to regulate matters that are primarily intrastate.”
