To the PRESIDENT AND CONGRESS, March 22, 2010
The unanimous Declaration of the people of the fifty States of America
When in the Course of human events it becomes necessary for one people to reassess the political bands which have connected them with their government and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, for a second time, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the reordering of our government.
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. — That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, — That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to affect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience has shown that mankind is more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed.
But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to change such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security. — Such has been the patient sufferance of these States; and such is now the necessity which constrains them to alter their former System of Government. The history of the present Congress, the Speaker of the House, and Presidents of the United States is of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute Tyranny over these States. To prove this, let Facts be submitted to a candid world.
Presidents have forced upon the people onerous burdens of taxation. Congress has supported these acts by submission, whether by threat or bribes, to secure for themselves positions of the power by unlawful acts over the people.
They have neglected acting in matters of immediate and pressing importance concerning foreign nations; they have utterly neglected to attend to them. The 44th President has given respect and honor to despots and other offensive national leaders who rule in direct opposition to the leadership of free countries.
Presidents have called together legislative bodies at places unusual, uncomfortable, and distant from the depository of their Public Records, for the sole purpose of fatiguing them into compliance with their measures.
They have maneuvered and traded upon the future of the citizens of the United States financial liberties repeatedly, and opposed with unreasonable firmness their invasions on the rights of the people.
Presidents, for a long time, have adopted Progressive and harmful policies, which expose the citizens of the enumerated states, to the dangers of invasion from without, and convulsions within..
The 44th President has defined as a God-given right, Healthcare. This is an Unconstitutional act which does not adhere to the Constitution’s definition of God-given rights. It represses the people and prevents their opportunity to secure their own Health and Welfare by imposing taxes upon them for a Future oppressive and unrepresented Healthcare Act that will, in the end, not pay for the “proposed” health system. This bill was illegally and unconstitutionally written, passed by a bribed, wearied Congress, forcing upon the people a health system that they neither want nor can afford.
Presidents combined with others and Congress to subject us to a jurisdiction foreign to our constitution, and unacknowledged by our laws; giving his Assent to their Acts of pretended Legislation:
The 44th President has, by order, given civilian U.S. justice for acts by Terrorists, committed upon the Inhabitants of these States, rather than placing their liberty in the appropriate hands of American Military Tribunals.
Presidents bear the responsibility of cutting off our Trade with all parts of the world through policies which have lowered our credit rating and moral strength in the eyes of other countries:
For effectively abolishing the free System of Constitutional Laws in this country, establishing therein an Arbitrary government, and enlarging its Boundaries so as to render it at once an example and fit instrument for introducing the same absolute rule into these States:
For taking away our God given Rights, abolishing our most valuable Laws and altering fundamentally the Forms of our Governments by creating a multitude of New Offices unrepresentative of the people: the so-called Czars, including Communists, Marxists and Elitists. They are representative of people whose sole purpose is to destroy this country through the unconstitutional control of people’s rights to life and liberty.
That an Amendment provide for recourse by the People against the attempt of a President to establish people in positions of power without and beyond the will of the people.
Presidents have excited domestic insurrections amongst us, and have endeavored to bring on the inhabitants of our States, a form of taxation that will be inherited by our children, grandchildren and future generations so that they will be taxed without representation, this in direct violation of the Constitution of the United States.
In every stage of these Oppressions We have Petitioned for Redress in the most humble terms: Our repeated Petitions have been answered only by repeated injury. Any President, whose character is thus marked by every act which may define a Tyrant, is unfit to be the ruler of a free people.
Nor have We been wanting in attentions to our Congress. We have warned them from time to time of attempts by their legislature to extend an unwarrantable jurisdiction over us. We have appealed to their native justice and magnanimity, and we have conjured them by the ties of our common kindred to disavow these usurpations, which would inevitably interrupt our connections and correspondence. They, too, have been deaf to the voice of justice and of consanguinity. We must, therefore, acquiesce in the necessity, which denounces our Separation, and hold them, as we hold the rest of mankind, Enemies in War, in Peace Friends.
Congress, for allowing themselves to be bribed, threatened and lied to, and allowing them to declare themselves vested with power to legislate for us in all cases whatsoever, without repercussion by their knowing, willing ignorance of the will of the people.
That Congress cannot impose Taxes on us without our Consent and despite our many protests, letters, phone calls and demonstrations. That when the people of this country rise up in protest against legislation proposed by our Congress, our representatives must return to the people and receive an elective, validated mandate by the people of their representative states for approval of such legislation. Otherwise, such legislation cannot be imposed upon the States.
Congress has plundered our right to life and the liberty by illegally absorbing, regulating and using as bribes and leverage our State’s waters, State’s land and wealth, and bargaining with the rights of a few people and placing the welfare of small fishes and insects, and Unions over the rights of the Human majority.
We declare that Congress must rescind the Executive Powers and other adopted powers of the President, with the exception of those enumerated in the Constitution. Those not enumerated do not exist nor can be created by Congress, the Judiciary, nor the President.
That any attempt to pass, against the will of the majority of the people, any bill, law or legislation, which attempts to harm the enumerated liberties set forth in the Constitution of this United States, will result in the immediate immobilization of the present Congress until a new Congress can be voted on by the people. No power can be usurped by the President during this transitional time. The Constitution will not be suspended, no power given to the President outside the Constitutional Powers as enumerated. No policies, legislation (whether declared by the President to be necessary or prudent or of immediate necessity), which would be in violation of the Constitution, will be allowed. The states will continue to exist and run without Congress, without harm or damage, during the time of re-elections. That the power to act, if necessary, in the presence of danger to this country be held by the Governors of the 50 states until a new Congress be re-elected.
That no government programs, offices, entitlements exceed one-tenth of the economy, workforce or wealth of the United States.
That the government must have in reserve the monies needed for any new implemented program. Otherwise, these programs will result in unreasonable taxation, enforced slavery of the people, and in unwarranted economic injustice and the foreseeable economic downfall of the United States of America.
That Congress, never again, be allowed to present a bill unless that bill be presented to the people for a minimum period of 45 days. That all debate, discussion and arguments involving any bill affecting more than one-tenth of the economy of the United States be public and open. There will be no more closed-door, secretive bills, unformed and unwritten laws or legislation forced upon the public. All bills voted on must be written in the form of a bill, as required, to be presented for vote by the House and Senate and the aforementioned public disclosure to the electorate.
That the 17th Amendment be repealed and Senators be, once again, sent by the states to Congress, with the right to be recalled by their prospective States whenever warranted.
That Congress receive no further remuneration for their service to their country after they leave their limited services so that they will return to life as an ordinary citizen of their representative states. This includes pay, insurance benefits, etc. This will allow them to live, in the words of our founding fathers, in a such a situation where they would never vote against their future lives as an ordinary citizen.
We, therefore, the people of the United States of America, Assembled, appealing to the Supreme Judge of the world for the rectitude of our intentions, do, in the Name, and by Authority of the good People of these United States, solemnly publish and declare: That these 50 states are, and of Right ought to be Free and Independent States, that they are Absolved from the arrogance of an Unrepresentative Congress and imprudent President, and that all political connection between the people and the Congress and President, is and ought to be re-evaluated; that as Free and Independent States, the people have full Power to enforce Congressional Term Limits, that Congress must not pass new taxes in the form of bills, writs, legislation, for which they have neither the money nor integrity nor power to control without putting the lives, liberties and happiness of the People in jeopardy. That a President does not have the power to enforce on the majority of the people, laws that harm the present and all future generations of Americans. That a President may not appoint enemies of Freedom (declared Marxists, Communists and any other appointees swearing or showing allegiance to parties or ideas that are or may be a danger to the liberties set forth in the Constitution) to any position of authority in this country. That both the President and Congress, who take an oath to uphold the Constitution, be held to that standard, or if in found in violation of the Constitution, the States, separate and equal, may have the authority to recall and replace them with people who are truly representative of the will of the majority of the United States.
— As it was unforeseeable by our Founding Fathers that such a repressive and arrogant government would ever exist in this United States of America, and that their writings and actions demonstrate an intolerance for the recent acts and unconstitutional governance of this people, And for the support of this Declaration, with a firm reliance on the protection of Divine Providence, we mutually pledge to each other our Lives, our Fortunes, and our sacred Honor.
KATHERINE LYNN WELKER NIXON
