TO THE LEGISLATURES OF THE FIFTY STATES
The Path of Survival for We, the People
By Glenn Flowers, June 27, 2009
Dear Sirs;
The titles, "The United States of America", and "The Constitution of the United States of America", have been the names of our union and its founding document for 230 plus years. They came to be so by way of that same Constitution. They have always been the title of the federal government and the contract by which we entered into union with it.

Now the people of your respective states find themselves under severe attack economically and socially, by that same organization, the USA, or federal government. We, the People of this country know that by ourselves, individually, we have but a small voice to try and effect any significant change. But, the people together, as states, have a voice Washington listens to. In fact, the states are the one voice that puts real concern into the minds of those elected federal officials. They know that the states created the Union, and they know that the states have the power, as representitives of the people, to replace them if they deemed it necessary.

I believe that the government in Washington has become so enamored with themselves and the power and money available that they need to be replaced and the Constitution restored, as written, as the law of the land. But, I also know that that is a drastic measure and is not likely to be taken seriously at this time.

The salvation of our way of life from destruction at the hands of the USA, viz. Obama, and his gang, rests solely with the legislatures of the fifty sovereign states. The resolutions passed by a few of the state legislatures, as associated in the Patrick Henry Caucus, would have a great and profound effect to bring about a realization of the people’s anger if a majority of the states passed similar, supporting legislation.

The speed at which the administration is acting to spend all the wages of future generations, pass laws that deny the people of their individual rights, dismantle the market economy, and gather unto themselves power and rights never meant to be theirs, demands that we, the people, act with similar speed and with the required authority of the state legislatures if the American way of life is to be preserved. There is no abundance of time, no margin for extended thought and consideration of lesser measures. The priorities of the government are setting the schedule.

The Patrick Henry Caucus, a forum of state law makers meeting to discuss actions they can take to alleviate the problems caused by the federal government, is the only such action being taken that I know of. It can, if supported by a majority of state legislatures, stop the demolition of this great nation and restore the Constitution to its rightful authority as the law. I urge all fifty state legislatures to contact the Utah state legislature for further information on the Patrick Henry Caucus, and to join with them to save America before it’s too late.

If it becomes necessary to take actions such as Jefferson described in the Declaration of Independence, and replace our elected government officials; a resolution would be required to nullify the agreement between the states and federal government. A majority of the fifty states would have authority to accomplish that task.

If you have any reservations as to where the US Armed Forces stand on the Constitution, I suggest you visit http://www.oath-keepers.blogspot.com/

I have taken the liberty of drafting a template, simple as it is, that could be the starting point for such a resolution. I do not flatter myself by believing it to be required as yet, nor do I believe it to be totally sufficient for such work, but intend to offer it only for your consideration if needed for such a purpose.

Sincerely,
Glenn F. Flowers
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

RESOLUTION OF SOVEREIGN AUTHORITY

FROM: The legislatures of the States of America,

TO: The Federal Government, the United States of America

LET IT BE KNOWN TO ALL WHO WILL HEAR,
These states, as represented by those whose signatures are attached hereto, through no fault of the people of the states, find that, due to the usurping of power by the Federal Government, we are not united in or by that government’s ideals or officials with whom we have been associated for many years.

We, the People, now find ourselves in danger of having our liberties and wealth destroyed as independent and free people of these seperate states, by that very association which we entered into for the purpose of protecting our common interests from just such a tyranny as has become the United States of America.

Through these processes this tyranny has been thrust upon us:
Illegal decisions made by the Supreme court, of which there are an assortment available for setting precedent that allows one or the opposite decision at the whim of the justices; The exploitation of these rulings by the executive and legislative departments in taking the power of the other and constructing non-enumerated powers by deeming them "necessary and proper";
By using the leniency granted by the people to allow for unforseen events to, instead, levy upon us an unbearable debt that robs us and our progeny of rightly earned wealth and standard of life;
By using the "power of the executive" to effect laws and policies designed to deconstruct the market society and individual motivation plainly of the Laws of Nature and of Nature’s God;
Imposing onto the states a tyranny of wealth redistribution and theft reminiscent of socialism;
By using first the honor and respect of the office of their position and then acting in opposition to that respect and dignity to pass law that would be absolutely rejected if allowed an airing before the people;
Through enactment of legislation requiring the usage of expensive, limited alternative sources of energy rather than the cheaper, abundantly available energy sources already in mass usage;
By establishing myriads of new government agencies and appointing over them "czars" having both legislative and executive powers, these "czars" not being elected and not answerable to the people;
By illegally firing independent inspectors general for investigating embezzlement by friends and supporters of elected officials;
By wastefully allocationg billions of taxpayers dollars to shore up private financial and industrial businesses;
By imposing salary and bonus caps on employees and officers of private businesses;
By prohibiting production of vast sources of proven reserves of petroleum;
Through the implementation of huge taxes on all emissions of naturally occurring atmospheric gasses (carbon dioxide) they have reversed the upward trend of not only American standards of living but have also eliminated any possibility of bringing better lives to billions of the third world countries relegating them to freezing in the dark.

By engaging in these actions without even once considering the will of the people, the officers of the Federal Government have committed gross acts of sedition against the true power of We, the People, have violated that solemn oath taken by them to protect and defend our Constitution, and have violated the word and intent of most every article, clause, and section of that document of union. This is not only bad governance, it is criminal activity.

Therefore, the following has been ratified by the majority of the legislatures of the several states and is, thus, made the applicable law by resolve, rendering the Constitution, as pertains to that Federal Governing body now existing, temporarily null and void of authority and causing it to be, no more, the law of the land.

To the furtherance of this cause it is:

Resolved:

Our federal government has taken upon itself powers never authorized, and with that have subjected the people of the nation to great harm, destroying the economy and the very nature of our society, and severely diminishing the wealth and general welfare of the people.

Resolved:

It has become necessary and of immediate need, to insure the survival of these sovereign states, to render the alliance to the Federal government non-existant and to, thereby, dissolve that created by the people of the states known as the United States of America.

 

Resolved:

It is only with these state legislatures that that authority rests as the creators of that Government. Therefore, if and when that central organization is no longer required, it becomes destructive in its nature, the people decide it to be ineffective and needs to be revised or replaced, only these state legislatures, having been the initiator and creator of that government for its own purposes and that government having no validity without the pleasure of these states and their people, have the authority to break those bonds voluntarily entered into. They can assert this authority over the Federal Government

regardless of objection or resistance from any source within the USA as the Constitution stipulates causing it no longer to be the law of the land as far as the present officers of the USA are concerned.

Resolved:

These legislatures of the several states, constituting a majority thereof, hereby declare all elected and appointed officers of all three branches of the Federal Government of the United States of America, excluding those continual employees not a party to the administration, Congress, or judiciary, to be in violation of the terms of their service, as sworn to by them, and are, hereby, terminated and removed from office as provided for in the Constitution of the United States. This ends the alliance of states with that government.

Resolved: We, the People of the states of America, retain the right of authorship, ownership, and any and all privileges of the titles, "The United States of America", and the, "The Constitution of the United States of America", for whatever future usage or purpose we see a need of or deem worthy. No officer, present or former, shall have any claim or right to these titles or to any resulting trademark.

Signed:
