The Citizens of the State of Georgia need to make their voices heard in this moment of history.
Washington D.C. has felt it appropriate to make its influence known in every county across these States United. It behooves The People to stand up in defense of the rights and liberties which were secured to us in the Constitution of the United States. In the name of general welfare and safety, the federal legislation machine manufactures and spits out unconstitutional laws in order to control us in the realms of healthcare, gun ownership, education and property rights to name just a few.
Judge Andrew Napolitano stated a truth for the people to stand on in a commentary concerning President’s Day:
All presidents but Jefferson have argued that their first job was to keep us safe. All presidents but Jefferson were wrong. If you read the Constitution, you will see that the President’s first job – as Jefferson understood well – is to keep us free.
And The People are standing… The calls for nullification of many over-reaching unconstitutional federal laws can be heard throughout the country and are now daily news. The nullification naysayers, as well, continue their dribble at the risk of their own liberty and freedom.
Now it is Georgia’s turn to stand again. Let your district and county representatives know that you support Georgia’s citizens right to choose their own healthcare without federal interference or penalty.
Having been shuffled about the Georgia General Assembly since 2009, SR 99 the “Health Care Freedom of Choice Constitutional Amendment” is currently sitting in committee. From the GGA website:
First Reader SummaryA RESOLUTION proposing an amendment to the Constitution so as to provide that no law or rule or regulation shall compel any person, employer, or health care provider to participate in any health care system and to authorize persons and employers to pay directly for lawful health care services without penalties or fines; to provide a short title; to provide for the submission of this amendment for ratification or rejection; and for other purposes.
