To: Repeal The 17th
If the federal government does not want the states to enforce federal immigration law, could the states say O.K. we will cease enforcement of any and all federal laws.

And what about the "sanctuary" cities that are blatantly VIOLATING federal law? Hmmmmm....

re: state/local enforcement of federal law...

I somehow can not picture folks
...tending to their moonshine stills
...counting their counterfeit money
...and guarding it all with a full auto machine gun
...and a short barrel sawed-off shotgun
with no concern for state or local law enforcement.

This could go on and on...
with federally mandated speed limits, blood alcohol levels, vehicle emissions, minimum wage, handicapped parking spaces, pollution emission limits, fishing limits, endangered species, wetlands, etc., etc,. etc.

I don’t think the feds really want local/state enforcement of federal law
to cease just because they got their panties in a wad over this one issue.
