I’m simply reminding my Senator what the boundaries of his legitimate authority to legislate are.

“Among the natural rights of the Colonists are these: First, a right to life; Secondly, to liberty; Thirdly, to property; together with the right to support and defend them in the best manner they can. These are evident branches of, rather than deductions from, the duty of self-preservation, commonly called the first law of nature...”

– Samuel Adams, The Rights of the Colonists, The Report of the Committee of Correspondence to the Boston Town Meeting, Nov. 20, 1772

So, again, there is only one “alternative” to the Democrat bills: Keep your oath to support and defend the Constitution of the United States.
