Due to the increased unconstitutional activities of our federal government, and in response to the
continuous anti-republic attitude and behavior of the federal government; i.e. Unconstitutional
congressional legislation, judicial legislating, and executive orders; the State of Wyoming is
adding a new amendment to its state constitution.. The State of Wyoming is amending its
constitution to reaffirm its state sovereignty status as is guaranteed in the Constitution of the United
States. The State of Wyoming also is also announcing to the Federal Government in Washington
D.C. that we will not abide by any unconstitutional legislation.
As was understood by the founders of the constitution, the Federal Government was clearly to be
limited in size, function, and power given only specific enumerated powers and responsibilities.
II. The term “General Welfare” has been consistently misrepresented in an effort to expand
the powers of the Federal Government. The term, “General Welfare”, in reality, is only
a part of a preamble to the listed enumerated powers within section 8 and refers to the
general welfare of the member states of the union and not to the specific welfare of the
individual citizens of the United States. The responsibility for the specific welfare of
citizens is reserved for the individual states and for the individual citizens of each state.
III. The “Commerce Clause (#3)” is, by congress and the federal government generally, one
of the most misinterpreted and abused clauses in the constitution.
The word “among” is synonymous with the term “between”. The word “Regulate” was
not intended to restrict or control commerce between the several states, but rather to
make commerce regular, protect, free, and un-inhibit commerce between the several
states. Examples:
#1. The restriction of tariffs and duties between states.
#2. To protect, allow, and encourage open trade of goods and services between the
several states.
a. In opposition to this responsibility health insurance providers have been
restricted from offering their products nationwide, thereby restricting free
and competitive commerce among the all states. This illegal action alone
costs American citizens, collectively, billions of dollars every year and
costs insurance providers billions of dollars of competitive market
opportunities.
#3. Other examples should be listed here.
IV. The enumerated powers stated in #18 is the most abused and misrepresented as the all
encompassing power to pass any bill or law desired by our congress in spite of the desires
of the American People.
V. Any action by the government that creates positions and/or organizations of power that
are not required to answer directly to the people, who are not put in place by an election
of the people, or who are not required to be publically vetted by the people’s
representatives, shall not be counted as Constitutionally legal.
Examples:
1. Federal Reserve who are tax payer funded but do not answer to the people and do
not have regular public management and operation review and audit procedures.
2. Environmental Protection Agency who have immense power affecting property
rights of American citizens do not answer to the people and do not have regular
public management and operation review and audit procedures.
3. The administration officers, known as Czars, placed by our current president and
many past presidents as policy advocates/advisors, funding manager/advisors,
etc., without proper comprehensive public vetting, oversight, or senate
confirmation.
IV. As a sovereign state of the Sovereign Republic of the United States of America, the State
of Wyoming additionally re-affirms support for, and protection of, the rights of its
citizens to:
A. Keep and bear arms and all additional elements associated with the maintenance
and operation of those arms.
G. Have the right to choose, by secret ballot and without threat or intimidation, to
join and/or create a workers collective bargaining organization.
H. Expect from the State of Wyoming support and protection with regards to any
infringement of their constitutional rights as presented in the Constitution of the
United States of America and in the Constitution of the State of Wyoming.
I. Maintain the rights of Free Speech and Free Press. This includes protection from
federal imposition of unfair, unethical, unlawful fines, penalties, operational
restrictions on public or private electronic transmission over public air ways, wire,
fiber optic, etc. systems except where the rights of privacy, protection from
slander, protection from illegal activities, etc. are being damaged.
J. Demand that the federal government be actively and efficiently responsible for
national security both domestically and abroad. That includes:
1. Securing our boarders, establishing immigration check points to determine
who is coming into, and going out of, the United states and why.
2. Maintaining an adequate law enforcement presence on our borders to
prevent illegal trafficking of weapons, drugs, human beings, etc. and to
prevent terrorist intrusion.
3. Strengthening our national and international security agencies by re-
writing a strong but monitored Patriot Act. (This act must be focused on
enemies but must maintain real protections from random and unlawful
searches, seizures, and detainment of our private legal citizens.)
4. Stop treating foreign militaristic terrorists as domestic criminals but rather
as the military terrorist enemies of the United States that they are. When
captured they should held as prisoners of war until the war conflict is over;
as has been the case in all past wars.
5. If crimes against humanity or war crimes are charged against such
militaristic terrorists they should handled, charged, and prosecuted by
military tribunals.
VI. The State of Wyoming rejects the Federal Government’s concept that any business,
industry, organization, or even a state, is too big to fail. When, due to its own
mismanagement, corruption, greed, or political fraud, an entity reaches a point of self-
destruction it is by natural law that they, by their own behavior, redeem themselves or
die.
It is unconstitutional for the federal government to usurp citizen tax payer dollars to
reward bad, illegal, irresponsible, and fraudulent behavior of any organization. “We the
People” are held accountable for our actions and hold to the principle that all people,
organizations, and even states be held to the same level of accountability.
VII. Any legislation, past, present, or future, based on any illegal unconstitutional expansion
of government powers or usurpations of the powers of the states and its citizens, should
thereby be null and void. While the State of Wyoming is willing to comply to any and all
constitutionally legal legislation, it refuses to recognize any legislation that is an illegal
expansion of power by the federal government, and/or, the illegal usurpation of the rights,
freedoms and powers of the individual citizens or states. Since such legislation is illegal
the State of Wyoming will not enforce or give credence to them.
Any attempt by the federal government to force the States of these United State, in particular the
State of Wyoming, to comply with such unconstitutional legislation or actions as identified
above, will be considered an attempt to remove the constitutionally guaranteed sovereignty of the
states. Such attempts will be rejected.
