SC lawmakers advance states rights measure
COLUMBIA, S.C. (AP) - South Carolina lawmakers have advanced a measure asserting state sovereignty, saying they want to send
President Obama and Congress a message.
The resolution declares the Palmetto State has the right to ignore any federal law or policies it deems unconstitutional. Similar resolutions are being considered across the country.
A Senate panel approved it Tuesday. The House has already passed a similar measure.
Proponents criticized the various federal stimulus and bailout packages as passing on debt to future generations, despite citizens' objections.
It seems there's a movement, and it's becoming larger by the day, in our Country to stop the heavy pen of our president and his followers from bailing out failing companies and financial institutions that allowed their own management staff to literally rob the coffers with enormous salaries and bonuses.
