My own expectation is low, given that NH is the state where that homosexual bishop continues to corrode Christianity from within. Were it to pass, that would itself be a landmark worth noticing. I wouldn’t mind it coming into force here in NC, but then again, it was our next-door neighbor which enacted a similar provision back in the 1820’s that sparked a rather considerable unpleasantness, much brunt of which we had to endure.

Still, the current prospects are for seriously more dire damage to the national polity than was true of Andrew Jackson (he just wanted to establish a national bank, ahh, the simplicity of old days, yes?) Having to enact decress of nullification must definitely be taken as evidence of tyranny run wild. It would be a great prudential act to try to lock the barn door before the horse gets to run.

Actually Jackson killed off the 2nd Bank of the United States (2BUS). The issue that sparked the nullification crisis was the tariff of abominations.
