The proposal calls for a constitutional amendment that would allow the states, by a two-thirds majority vote, to repeal objectionable federal legislation and regulations.

Something we've been calling for on FR since the beginning...

The only negative thing I can see in this seeing how the left and Democrats cheat and steal elections, would be ? what would happen when the majority of those states turn liberal/Democrat ? what then ?

Wouldn’t need the danged thing if we returned to the original constitution, where the state’s selected their Senators.

For then the state governments would have their ‘ambassadors’ to the Federal government.

But instead, we have the travesty of having two houses of the legislature acting as the ‘people’s house’, ie: House of Representatives.

And thus the Federal legislature would return to normal, with one House speaking for the people, and the other - the Senate - speaking for the states.
