Oregon Tenth Amendment Center

These problems exist in a number of areas, the majority of them could be resolved by moving the decision to a more local level where your government is more responsive to you input. Gun Control, education, health care, retirement, environmental policy this is just a partial list of issues that can be better addressed at the state level. Unfortunately this requires state lawmakers to accept a higher responsibility for our liberties. I am working on that but it is along road to get back to where we come from.

The Federal Government keeps its books in a way that would send any private business to jail.  In the near future, Social Security, Medicaid and Medicare are going to be consuming much more in resources than the taxes collected to service the programs.  The current national debt is $12.46 trillion, (I would put all the [...]

I believe we are very much brother’s in our believes. We need all the
freedom and liberty loving, Constitution respecting Americans to join
together to take our Country back and get us back to our Constitutional
foundation……and embrace American exceptionalism & individual
right’s and put the people first and the government as the protector of
those right’s, not at odds with them, as provided by the Constitution
and our beloved Bills of Right’s.

In
regards to the Tenth Amendment, there could not be a more important time to discuss
this critical matter. Let’s make clear the role of government and put it in proper
perspective: the Power granted to the states by the Tenth Amendment was already
implied by the Constitution itself

As I have recommended you all do, I have written the Oregon state legislation. Here is the letter I sent, as we have not passed one yet, I focused on the state sovereignty. You can do the same, or maybe another tenth amendment center issue.

One favored method of dismissing the sovereignty of state governments is to quote the Supremacy Clause, saying that since the Constitution is the supreme law of the land that state laws are necessarily subordinate to federal law.  The only problem with this reading is that they fail to read the entire Supremacy Clause.  To remedy [...]

While you may call it political theater, the fact is that these laws are the laws of the state(s). The state government makes state laws, and unless they are specifically barred from making laws on a given subject by the Constitution, their law reigns supreme in the state (Tenth Amendment).

Jaynee is running against Peter Defazio for Oregons 4th district in the U.S house pf Representatives.  I first Contacted Jaynee when I read a post on Resistnet Oregon that she was going to run for office.  I was brand new to the Tenth amendment movement at the time, but I had visited www.tenthamendmentcenter.com So I [...]
