Re: Tennessee has introduce Sovereignty Resolution

David, I have not read the other states Acts, but thought Tennessee's was interesting when it said (See my words in CAPS),

"BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that a committee of conference and correspondence be

appointed by the Speaker of the House and of the Senate, which shall HAVE AS ITS CHARGE TO

COMMUNICATE THE PRECEDING RESOLUTION TO THE LEGISLATURES OF THE SEVERAL STATES, to assure them

that this State continues in the same esteem of their friendship and to call for A JOINT WORKING GROUP BETWEEN THE

STATES STATES TO ENUMERATE THE ABUSES OF AUTHORITY BY THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT . . ."

David, this whole Sovereignty move is going interstate? Do you recall if any of the other states resolutions have interstate language in them?
