“If once [the people] become inattentive to the public affairs, you and
I, and Congress and Assemblies, Judges and Governors, shall all become
wolves. It seems to be the law of our general nature, in spite of
individual exceptions.” –Thomas Jefferson to E. Carrington, 1787.
Our Federal Government has repeatedly exceeded its mandate put forth by
our founders in the U.S Constitution. The reasons usually given for
going beyond the enumerated powers are, the interstate commerce clause
and “general welfare”. There is no need in this article to discuss all
of the numerous ways this overreach happens on a daily basis. Instead
attention will be brought to the role our state representatives can play
in preventing this federal overreach and why it is critically important
to put as much, if not more emphasis on your state races as one might
for federal races.
