No

Sad to say that Missouri is not yet on the list. Gov Nixon and rest of Dems in administration have refused to file. Lt. Gov Kinder(R) thinks we should fight, but has no authority to file.

It will be on the ballot in November, to let the people decide.

I like the I C E jacket/agent standing around idea. One could even have some coolers sitting around with ice in them, so that if anyone asked, you could sell them some ice if they want LOL =)

Not til it gets to 57.

You need to get this message to someone who can spread the word. It’s a really good idea.

...
We need another twenty states to get the 3/4.


Not sure what you are getting at here, but these are mainly the actions of the AG of each state, not the legislatures.

I know; but once it gets to the 3/4 AGs against this, then we’ll probably see more action from the corresponding legislatures. (Much like the Firearm Freedom Act movement going on.)

“We need no new constitution; we need to use the one we have had for over two hundred years. It will serve us well.”

We just need to FOLLOW it - including the 10th amendment.

Dang, first I’ve heard about it Diana! I have to admit to not watching much TV, and not subscribing to our local paper though! Anywhere I can go to stay on top of things here in WI re: our AG’s plan?

Just google him; there seems to be at least ONE story about this each week. Yep. Only one a week, thanks to the LefTards that run the Wisconsin media. Grrrrrrrrr!

[oneamericanvoice]

Sure wish my state, California, would sign on. Maybe when more states have joined...it’s Spring so hope must be sprung.

[LibertyRocks]

Cool, thanks Diana! Completely understand about the papers... That’s why I don’t bother with a subscription.

I wish I had as much faith in the state legislatures as you. Unfortunately, they still seem to be predominately controlled by Democrats. Perhaps after November though ...

The D/R discriminator is, in a single word, useless.
Ignore it and vote for a Constitutionalist.

The D/R discriminator is, in a single word, useless. Ignore it and vote for a Constitutionalist.

I'd be more than happy to vote that way. Still, my observation to date is that the D's (predominately) tend to vote in lock step.

Case in point is the Attorneys General of some selected states that will not be a party to Courtroom Revolt Against ObamaCare even though the Governor(R) wants it but his AG(D) refuses, or an Attorney General(R) who wishes it but is barred by his Governor(D).

This is hard to understand why anyone, (D or R or whatever) would not join in this case against this current law, given the ramifications of Federal vs. State powers.

Turns out you're right, Missouri has not yet officially joined the existing suit or filed a separate one. I think I added MO to the list a while back because of Kinder's statements at the time he would be joining the suit filed in Florida. Hasn't happened yet. I'm sure he is encountering a good deal of resistance from the insufferable Dims in the State House and the AG. Near as I can recall, Jay Nixon was not as adamant in his opposition, but I may have read it wrong.

Lt. Gov Kinder(R) thinks we should fight, but has no authority to file.

Several other State officials are in similar positions but so far are damning the torpedoes. I pray Kinder is able to hang tough and pull it off for the people of Missouri, AND the country.

[madameguinot]

The ends justifies the means. I think Rush is right when he says the dems are going to ‘cram down’ as much crap as they can before Nov. Large numbers of Democrat seats will be sacrificed with the idea that their actions heretofore are irreversible. Whether they are or not remains to be seen!

[madameguinot]

Illinois ain’t.

[greeneyes]

The legislature is putting it on the ballot as a constitutional amendment in November. Kinder has indicated he will not file at this time.

If the measure passes, then Missouri will file. I think we passed a new state law that requires the AG to file suits going forward, when the Gov orders it, 2/3 of legislature request it, or voters pass it.

[ForGod'sSake]

The legislature is putting it on the ballot as a constitutional amendment in November.

Hmmm, given the makeup of the Missouri legislature, is it likely to happen? AND is Kinder's, hence Missouri's participation in ANY lawsuit against Øbamacare dead for now?
