Big news from Richmond just a few short days before the 10th Amendment rally on January 18th. As reported by the Richmond Tea Party via Tertium Quids:

Even as calls for nullification of proposed federal health care mandates have intensified on the state level, an almost hysterical effort has arisen to discredit such measures, and paint them as part of an obsolete theory with no bearing on modern politics.Regardless of its logical descent from our most basic founding principle, that governments derive their just powers from the consent of the governed, nullification simply doesn’t work, critics say.Or does it?

The Tenth Amendment Center is reporting that at least seven states have introduced legislation or constitutional amendments for 2010 that could effectively nullify national health care within their borders.They have even put together this handy map.
