As things stand right now it looks like Oklahoma, Washington, Hawaii, Missouri, Arizona, New Hampshire, Georgia, California, Michigan and Montana will all definitely consider sovereignty bills this year. They may be joined by Arkansas, Colorado, Idaho, Indiana, Alaska, Kansas, Alabama, Nevada, Maine and Pennsylvania where legislators have pledged to introduce similar bills. Twenty states standing up to the federal government and demanding a return to constitutional principles is a great start, but it remains to be seen whether legislatures and governors are brave enough or angry enough to follow through. As the Obama administration and the Democratic Congress push for more expansion of federal power and spending that may help provide the motivation needed for the sovereignty movement to take off.

Things are getting very interesting. Wonder how long it goes on before states start outright seceding from the Union.

I'm glad that is happening, but how many will pass a sovereignty resolution? Until one of these resolutions is passed, this is all just talk.

Heard anything about TN? I am shocked that we aren’t on board yet.

Interesting that there are plenty of blue states on that list.
