In California, laws passed by the people are routinely overruled by the courts. Is that an option here?
"In California, laws passed by the people [emphasis added] are routinely overruled by the courts. Is that an option here?"
"10th Amendment: The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people [emphasis added]."
So what happened to the 10th Amendment (10A)-protected power of the people?
Regarding post-FDR era state sovereignty-ignoring activist judges and justices who blatantly ignore the 10A-protected power of the people, please consider the following.
Using inappropriate words like concept and implicit, the excerpt below from Wickard v. Filburn (Wickard) shows what was left of the defense of 10A-protected state sovereignty by the last of state sovereignty-respecting majority justices in United States v. Butler, FDRs state sovereignty-ignoring activist justices later blatantly ignoring the reasonable Butler interpretation of 10A when they scandalously decided Wickard in Congresss favor imo.
From the accepted doctrine that the United States is a government of delegated powers, it follows that those not expressly granted, or reasonably to be implied from such as are conferred, are reserved to the states, or to the people. To forestall any suggestion to the contrary, the Tenth Amendment was adopted. The same proposition, otherwise stated, is that powers not granted are prohibited [emphasis added]. United States v. Butler, 1936.
"In discussion and decision, the point of reference, instead of being what was "necessary and proper" to the exercise by Congress of its granted power, was often some concept [???] of sovereignty thought to be implicit [??? emphases added] in the status of statehood." Wickard v. Filburn, 1942.
Remember in November!
MAGA, now KAGA! (Keep America Great Always!)
Supporting PDJT with a new patriot Congress that will promise to fully support his already excellent work for MAGA will effectively give fast-working Trump a third term in office imo.
These laws were passed by the legislature, not the “people”.

Here in Virginazuela I’ve observed that state courts have been moving insane left for a while, making Gov. Gungrabber McBabykiller seem almost reasonable.
