We can take control of the House of Representatives to restore the 10th Amendment in the next election cycle. To see how, visit:

I am one of those teapartiers. Now that I have protested in Washington, D.C. and Albany, NY , I have some contacts with some very enthusiastic groups throughout the state. It was nice to let off some steam, but now it is time for real action. I am going to start speaking at 912 group meetings about some state sovereignty steps we can start making here. I would like to set up a 10th Amendment Center table at functions and try to recruit some people to help me out.
I have been following the gun law in Montana. I am looking forward to the day when they start actually selling guns with no federal registrations. I think another avenue to circumvent federal regulations would be pharmacueticals made in a particular state for sale in only that state. I think the Sovereignty Declaration is pointless unless it actually means something and there is some sort of action taken.

Terry,
I agree with you on Rex Rammell, who I am helping set up a meeting here in Grangeville on the 23rd of this month.
Thank you for your support.

Shane,
I just sent you a email.

Larry,
I think your plan will work, its finding the deep pocket supporter that is difficult.

Pete I am from North Idaho and I am hoping you can help me to get involved with this. Can you email me who it is you are working with in the legislature?
Thanks

One idea:

Step 1. Form a PAC
Step 2. Fund it by a tenth amendment supporter with deep pockets, sort of a bizarro George Soros
Step 3. Contribute to the campaigns of tenth amendment state reps and state senators. Once, we’ve got the state houses it is a fait accompli.

Pete, I applaud your efforts in the State of Idaho. I for one totally agree that trying to solve this crisis at the federal level is a futile effort. On many occasions I have contacted our state legislators and the Governor on various subjects to no avail. Here is my path forward on this subject: As we all know, most elected officials have their own “self” interests in mind. It really doesn’t matter anymore what letter comes in front of the candidate (dem, rep, ind, etc.) Every once in a while, a true statesman comes on the scene. In Idaho, there are two such people running for office next year. Rex Rammell for Governor and Vaughn Ward for Congress. Both men are grounded in the principles of our Constitution and are 10th Amendment advocates. On a local level, my wife has been actively campaigning for County Commissioner for next years election. The kind of changes that we all are striving for have to come from within, taking small steps. Patience and Perseverance are key to success.

“I would need to find at least one person in each district to spearhead the 10th Amendment movement. What do you think?”

This is an AWESOME idea Pete, though there are still many states that have no central 10th group, let alone districts.

What I can tell you is that given the rate at which the ’10thers’ are massing, a 10th group in every state is not far off. Perhaps what you are doing in ID will provide a model for those states who are late to the sovereignty party.

This will be a long and pitched battle, but the results seem pretty clear to me already- decentralization is coming, with all of your help.

Monoprise…the maps and database could be created on an interactive website. As the group grows on the local level, their leaders, respecticvely could plug in their data to give everyone a running total and placement at all times. The software could include a colorcoded interactive map that shows the strength of the movement, its weakness to identify a focus of resources, and more than ever, the progress in the intiative itself.
