Tired of the Feds pushing us around with unfounded mandates and now the forced health care coverage tax scheme. The tenth amendment is our first defense against the force of the federal government. Tim Burchett of Narragansett Rhode Island has single-handedly found sponsors to pass a Tenth Amendment Resolution in RI.

This Resolution is very close to passing and will be the first New England state to do so. Come to the Rhode Island Capital on March 27th to support, see and hear how we can do the same for our states.

One man can make a difference. . .believe it!!!!

State House – On March 27, 2010 a group of concerned citizens will be holding a rally from 1:00 – 4:00 p.m. at the State House to celebrate the 9th and 10th Amendments to the

U. S. Constitution. The Rally is open to the public and will be held on the front steps of the State House.

Speakers who have been invited to speak are Governor Donald L. Carcieri, Representative Joseph A. Trillo (R-Dist. 24 Warwick), and Representative John J. Loughlin (R-Dist. 71 Little Compton, Portsmouth , Tiverton). A complete listing of speakers will be posted early next week on the web site: Rhode Island Tenth Amendment Center. The rally will be hosted by Helen Glover of Talk Radio 920 WHJJ.

The 9th Amendment, entitled “Construction of Constitution,” reads “The enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people.”

The 10th Amendment, entitled “Powers of the States and People,” reads “The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.”

Representative Joseph A. Trillo submitted a House resolution (H-7030) in January calling on President Obama and the Congress to refrain from enacting any law or imposing on the states any regulation that would encroach on any powers reserved to the people or the States in the 9th and 10th Amendments.
