This is an alternative to secession from the Union. The States need to convene an emergency Convention to Propose Amendments. They can also ratify amendments without involving Congress in ANY WAY WHATSOEVER. The main amendment to be considered should be this:
The States, with a majority in agreement, can, at any time, nullify any bill passed by Congress and signed by the President. The States, with a majority in agreement, can nullify any Executive Order or any other thing signed, or ordered, by the President. The States, with a majority in agreement, can remove any person appointed to any office in the Judicial branch or the Executive branch.
These are the kinds of things that the States could control before we got the damned 17th amendment. The States participation in the Federal government needs to be restored, IMMEDIATELY.
Bingo we have a winner, You are correct, However since the State appears to want to try something a little different I propose they adopt the NDAA in it’s entirety as STATE LAW, immediately Lock Up and Hold Indefinitely ALL FEDERAL EMPLOYEES IN THE STATE, and hold them forever, just like the NDAA says. Hell under the Provisions of the NDAA Texas doesn’t even have to tell anyone they did it, just do it and be done with it. That will get the ball rolling as weather or not the NDAA Constitutional. and Remember Any Federal Law can be Adopted by Any STate and is just as Constitutional.
