DESCRIPTION

This is Nevada State Senator Settlemyer's confusing reply to my request for introduction of a Tenth Amendment Resolution in the Nevada State Legislature.

TRANSCRIPT

We passed it in 1995 James Settelmeyer

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------From: Frank Pelteson [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Monday, April 13, 2009 10:45 AM To: Undisclosed-Recipient:; Subject: Tenth Amendment Resoution Importance: High Dear Nevada State Assemblyman: As you are probably aware, there is a movement among state legislatures to pass "Tenth Amendment" resolutions affirming state sovereignty over those powers not granted to the federal government by the Constitution as secured by the Tenth Amendment. Already such resolutions have been introduced in the following states: Arizona, Arkansas, Georgia, Idaho, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Michigan, Minnesota, Montana, New Hampshire, Oklahoma, Oregon, South Carolina, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Virginia, and Washington. In Oklahoma and South Dakota both houses of the state legislature have already passed Tenth Amendment resolutions. Here's a link to a Tenth Amendment resolution which was passed by both houses of the Oklahoma state legislature earlier this year: http://webserver1.lsb.state.ok.us/2009-10bills/HB/HJR1003_ENGR.RTF I strongly believe that it's high time to restore the balance of power between the states and the federal government as prescribed by the U.S. Constitution. Here's a link to an excellent video by Pennsylvania State Representative Sam Rohrer in which he explains why Tenth Amendment resolutions should be introduced and passed in all state legislatures: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RB03MEw2_4c A Tenth Amendment resolution (AJR 15) has already been introduced in the Nevada Legislature. A hearing needs to be urgently scheduled. Please support its passage. Thank you. Please reply. Sincerely, Frank M. Pelteson 3753 Alliance Street Las Vegas, NV 89129-6835 702-655-4216 [email protected]
