“More than a dozen states have passed or enacted laws raising the minimum age to 21 and others are considering doing so. Sen. McConnell’s announcement Thursday follows the introduction earlier this month of similar bills in the House.“

If states are already doing it, then that is even less reason for the federal government to get involved.

Do any of these bozos really think this is what the Founders had in mind when they granted Congress the power to “regulate Commerce with foreign Nations, and among the several States, and with the Indian Tribes?”

Seeing crap like this come from Republicans makes me sick.

Oh, they certainly know well enough to use today’s English to abuse/twist the definitions of that in the Constitution.

PLENTY of writings/books of the era to indicate what’s what.

It’s a 3-co-equal-circle-jerk w/ the Pleebs in the middle.

I haven’t heard but Dr. Paul and MAYBE one/two others even BOTHER to bring up the topic of *AUTHORIZATION vs. Constitution*
