Michigan declares her sovereignty!
Yesterday morning I received an email from We The People about Michigan Sovereignty resolution in the House. I immediately composed the email below and it was not long before my phone was ringing wanting to know what we are doing on this. I post it here for all other states to see.
Let the games begin.
Dear Advocate of Liberty,
On January 22, Michigan Representative Paul E. Opsommer offered three resolutions to the Michigan State House.
These three resolutions are:
2009 House Concurrent Resolution 4 - to affirm Michigan's sovereignty under the Tenth Amendment to the Constitution of the United States and to urge the federal government to halt its practice of imposing mandates upon the states for purposes not enumerated by the Constitution of the United States.
* Referred to the House Government Operations Committee on January 22, 2009.
2009 House Concurrent Resolution 5 - to request the State Officers Compensation Commission to recommend a 10 percent legislative salary reduction and to endorse and follow certain performance-based pay structures.
* Referred to the House Government Operations Committee on January 22, 2009.
2009 House Concurrent Resolution 6 - to memorialize the President, the Congress, and the Department of Homeland Security of the United States to change requirements, agreements, and memorandums of understanding relating to the creation of Enhanced Drivers Licenses.
* Referred to the House Transportation Committee on January 22, 2009.
I am asking for immediate volunteers for participation on a team tasked with planning and coordinating support of these three resolutions.
Responsibilities:
1. Monitor the progress of these resolutions in committee.
2. Hold these committees to an on the record vote.
3. Speak at hearings on these Resolutions
4. Plan and coordinate Campaign for Liberty Action in support of these three Resolutions.
We need articulate, focused individuals who are (or can be soon) well versed on one or more of these topics.
It will help to have some people on the team from the Lansing area to attend the committee meetings and provide reports.
For those not on the planning team you can help out in the following ways.
1. Log onto www.michiganvotes.org and start an account (very little info needed for this)
2. Keyword search for HCR 4 and click to add it to your watch list.
3. Look at the members of the committees and find out if any are your reps.
4. Be prepared to put your boots on the ground. We may need to act very fast.
I was hoping to have more time to get our county organizations up and running but this is hard to pass up. There are many groups that we can coordinate with so we won't be alone.
This is why we are here. Lets make a name for ourselves.
Sincerely,
Tony DeMott
Interim Michigan State Coordinator, Campaign for Liberty
