Subject: Its REAL

Michigan stands poised to enter into a formal legal agreement to create new drivers licenses that would contain computer chips and that would share drivers license data with foreign governments like Canada and Mexico. It also would set Michigan on course to become REAL ID compliant. Michigan needs to join withfreedom lovingstatessuch asMontana, Alaska, Maine, South Carolina, Georgia, Arizona, Washington, Idaho, Oklahoma, Louisiana, and others who have said "NO" to these national ID cards that will rob us of our Constitutionally mandated and God given rights.

Is this a tenth amendment issue?

The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.

example:

In 1997, the Court again ruled that a federal act, this time the Brady Handgun Violence Prevention Act, violated the Tenth Amendment (Printz v. United States, 521 U.S. 898 (1997)). The act required state and local law enforcement officials to conduct background checks on persons attempting to purchase handguns. Justice Scalia, writing for the majority, applied New York v. United States to show that the law violated the Tenth Amendment. Since the act “forced participation of the State’s executive in the actual administration of a federal program,” it was unconstitutional.

Makes me glad to be in Arizona!

However, I will most definitely be telling my family and friends to call Jenny, and harass their senators.
