Tenth Amendment Center: Tenther Tuesday Episode 22: States Pushing Back Against Federal Healthcare, Asset Forfeiture and More

...from Tenth Amendment Center

Today is the 215th day the GOP has failed to repeal Obamacare. But while Republicans in Congress and the president point fingers and play the blame game for not keeping their promise, states continue to take steps to undermine the unconstitutional federal healthcare system. In this week’s episode of Tenther Tuesday, Michael Boldin and Mike Maharrey talk about state efforts nullify federal healthcare schemes and undercut federal asset forfeiture programs. They also go off script a bit and discuss more generally the importance of political decentralization.

Tenth Amendment Center: Was Justice Scalia an Old Originalist?

Image
...from Tenth Amendment Center One of the standard distinctions these days is between the old originalism and new originalism.  While different people define the distinction a little bit differently, I define the old originalism as having two essential characteristics: using “original intent” to determine the original meaning of a provision and a belief that significantly constraining judges is essential to the task of originalism. The newer originalisms – I use the term “newer originalisms” rather than the “new originalism” because new versions of originalism differ from one another – have abandoned these two characteristics.  The newer originalisms tend to focus on the original public meaning – focusing on a more textual than intentionalist approach.  And the newer originalisms no longer hold (or act like) significantly constraining judges is essential.  If the original meaning is permissive – if it is unclear, vague, or delegates power to judges – then that is the original meanin

Tenth Amendment Center: Permission not Required: “Constitutional Carry” Bill Introduced in South Dakota

Image
...from Tenth Amendment Center PIERRE , S.D. (Jan. 11, 2019) – A “Constitutional Carry” bill introduced in the South Dakota House would make it legal to carry a firearm without a license in the state, fostering an environment hostile to federal gun control. Sen. Lance Russell (R-Hot Springs) introduced Senate Bill 38 ( SB38 ) on Jan. 6, with eight cosponsors from both chambers. The bill seeks to repeal numerous sections of state law requiring state residents to have a license in order to carry a concealed weapon, while still allowing county sheriffs to issue permits. Under current state law , residents are required to have a conceal carry license to have a weapon in their vehicle. Former Gov. Dennis Daugaard rejected similar measures in the past, but with the election of Kristi Noem, supporters hope the legislation can be signed into law this time around. Gun shop owner Brandon Maddox told news station KSFY that a concealed carry permit is redundant. “I think that the second am
