North Dakota Legislators Plan To Nullify Biden’s Executive Orders At State Level

New legislation would mandate that the State of North Dakota ignore executive orders coming from the Biden administration that are unconstitutional.

Republican legislators in North Dakota are taking a pro-active – and constitutional – step to push back against unconstitutional executive orders coming out of the Biden administration, and they are doing so with the power of the US Constitution in their corner.

A new bill introduced in the North Dakota State Legislature (HB1164), would instruct the state’s Attorney General to review the constitutionality of each of the executive orders issued by Joe Biden.

Under the proposed law, should the North Dakota Attorney General find that any executive orders are unlawful – or unconstitutional, the executive order would be “nullified,” it would prohibit any state, county, or local agency – or publicly funded organization – from enforcing the order(s).
Specifically, the proposed HB1164, enumerates the following issues for nullification:

*Pandemics or other health emergencies
*The regulation of natural resources, including coal and oil
*The regulation of the agriculture industry
*The use of land
*The regulation of the financial sector as it relates to environmental, social, or governance standards
*The regulation of the constitutional right to keep and bear arms
Additionally, State Rep. Sebastian Ertelt (R), has introduced legislation that would affect the same fate to unconstitutional legislation coming out of the Federal Legislative Branch.

South Dakota has done something similar. Other states should do the same. Read on:

If the states figured out how to really re-assert their 10th Amendment rights, a lot of this would go away.

But the Dem strongholds don't see the world this way.

A convention of states may be the only way to really reverse this course of FedGov filling every crack and crevice of your daily life.

I applaud states that do this but unfortunately, Washington has the power of the purse, i.e., withholding federal dollars.

States rights !

Hell yes we have. The Dakotas leading the way. I'm telling you, the middle of this country is sick of this crap.

They should all do this along the path of the Keystone pipeline and then build the damn thing.

They could build it, I suppose, assuming it's not on federal land, but using the Keystone pipeline would easily fall under inter-state commerce.

Resist!!

Sound familiar?
LMAO

Then don't send tax dollars to DC in the first place. Make your own trade deals, etc.
