I put this up as a tie in to the Tea Party post below (see comments there) and because there is something going on here. 20 states so far acting on or debating 10th Amendment Resolutions. It may not go anywhere but I don't think it should be ignored, either.
And besides, I live in Sam Rohrer's District and voted for him. So I am very happy he's doing this.

PA State Rep To Introduce State Sovereignty Resolution
Submitted by Phil on Fri, Feb 13, 2009
From the DailyPaul.com, Pennsylvania State Rep. Samuel Rohrer is planning to introduce a resolution reasserting State’s rights:
In an attempt to proclaim and reassert Pennsylvania state government’s independence and sovereignty from the federal government, I plan to introduce a House resolution reminding federal authorities about the constitutional limitations on their powers and calling on them to cease and desist with all activities that infringe on the powers reserved to the state of Pennsylvania and its citizens.
This is an issue that is currently being addressed by more than 20 other states across our nation.
Like our sister states, Pennsylvania must draw a line in the sand and reassert its sovereignty.
I am currently circulating the resolution among my peers in the Pennsylvania House of Representatives. Please encourage your family members, friends and acquaintances who live outside our legislative district to contact their House member and urge them to support this measure to protect Pennsylvania’s independence.
