Article I, Section 10, US Constitution: "No State shall... coin Money; emit Bills of Credit; make any Thing but gold and silver Coin a Tender in Payment of Debts..."

IOW, they may neither coin money, nor print certificates backed by gold and silver coin.

Thanks for saving me the trouble of posting that, Carry.

I can understand folks' enthusiasm about this, but we conservatives should not support any un-constitutional measure, even if it's near and dear to our hearts.

The DOJ will be along any minute to file a federal lawsuit over this. Perhaps the state of Utah will force the issue to the top, and cause the development of a multi-state counter suit, to force Congress to abolish the federal reserve, and go back to printing real money.

Dunno, but this is going to get interesting.

As the Utah legislature knows very well. It looks like empty grandstanding to me.
