On Monday, the Tennessee Health Care Freedom Act cleared its last hurdle in the Tennessee General Assembly. The House voted 70 to 27 to pass the legislation, following on the heels of the Senate passage of SB0079 (http://wapp.capitol.tn.gov/apps/billinfo/default.aspx?BillNumber=SB0079) on February 23. This bill provides vital protections to Tennesseans who choose not to comply with the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act passed by Congress last year. The Tennessee Health Care Freedom Act states:
It is declared that the public policy of this state, consistent with our constitutionally recognized and inalienable right of liberty, is that every person within this state is and shall be free to choose or to decline to choose any mode of securing health care services without penalty or threat of penalty.
It is declared that the public policy of this state, consistent with our constitutionally recognized and inalienable right of liberty, is that every person within this state has the right to purchase health insurance or to refuse to purchase health insurance. The government may not interfere with a citizen’s right to purchase health insurance or with a citizen’s right to refuse to purchase health insurance. The government may not enact a law that would restrict these rights or that would impose a form of punishment for exercising either of these rights. Any law to the contrary shall be void ab initio.
The bill will be heading to Governor Bill Haslam’s desk shortly.
It is crucial that we contact the governor’s office to express our support for this bill. We are about to cross the finish line for the Tennessee Health Care Freedom Act, but we still need one last push to bring this victory to fruition here in Tennessee.
Contact the Governor!

State vs. Federal: The Nullification Movement (http://www.thenewamerican.com/index.php/usnews/constitution/2957-state-vs-federal-the-nullification-movement)
Because the Supreme Court has for many years interpreted the Constitution in a manner to further empower the federal government, states are moving to take power back from the feds through a growing and vibrant nullification movement. By Patrick Krey
Nullification in a Nutshell (http://www.thenewamerican.com/index.php/history/american/2971-nullification-in-a-nutshell)
The modern-day nullification movement has as its genesis the principle of federalism and the writings of James Madison and Thomas Jefferson, in particularly the famous Kentucky and Virginia Resolutions of 1798, supporting the right of states to nullify unconstitutional federal usurpations.
