DON'T MESS WITH TEX: GOV. DECLARES STATE SOVEREIGNTY
WAKE UP CALL: TEXAS
GOV. BACKS RESOLUTION AFFIRMING SOVEREIGNTY
Tue Apr 14 2009 08:44:54 ET
AUSTIN – Gov. Rick Perry joined state Rep. Brandon Creighton
and sponsors of House Concurrent Resolution (HCR) 50 in support of states’
rights under the 10th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution.
“I believe that our federal
government has become oppressive in its size, its intrusion into the lives of
our citizens, and its interference with the affairs of our state,” Gov. Perry
said. “That is why I am here today to express my unwavering support for efforts
all across our country to reaffirm the states’ rights affirmed by the Tenth
Amendment to the U.S. Constitution. I believe that returning to the letter and
spirit of the U.S. Constitution and its essential 10th Amendment will free our
state from undue regulations, and ultimately strengthen our Union.”
Perry continued: "Millions of
Texans are tired of Washington, DC trying to come down here to tell us how to
run Texas."

A number of recent federal
proposals are not within the scope of the federal government’s constitutionally
designated powers and impede the states’ right to govern themselves. HCR 50
affirms that Texas claims sovereignty under the 10th Amendment over all powers
not otherwise granted to the federal government.
It also designates that all compulsory federal legislation
that requires states to comply under threat of civil or criminal penalties, or
that requires states to pass legislation or lose federal funding, be prohibited
or repealed.
