The False Promise Of The Converse-1983 Action, John F. Preis
The False Promise Of The Converse-1983 Action, John F. Preis
Indiana Law Journal
The federal government is out of control. At least that’s what many states will tell you. Not only is the federal government passing patently unconstitutional legislation, but its street-level officers are ignoring citizens’ constitutional rights. How can states stop this federal juggernaut? Many are advocating a “repeal amendment,” whereby two-thirds of the states could vote to repeal federal legislation.
