Jobs Bill Force States to Surrender Sovereignty

Jobs Bill Force States to Surrender Sovereignty

Jobs Bill is not about creating jobs, but surrendering States Sovereignty.  Under Sec.376, States receiving any Federal funding whether Medicaid, Medicare, Tuition, FEMA, etc. will now surrender its Sovereignty under this new Jobs Bill.  Surrendering Sovereign Immunity allows states to be sued by anyone recognized by the Federal Government.  Interesting that Hilda Solis has been advocating the rights of illegals and now this Jobs plan forces states to yield its sovereignty to be sued.  It is also likely Labor Unions could invoke this requirement to supersede Right to Work and force unionization of state agencies and businesses.  Is this a Jobs Bill or a Bill to expand Federal power via DOJ, DOL, and others members of the Federal Family?

    I thought the Fed was to provide for the common defense, promote the general welfare, and secure the blessings of liberty to the citizens of this republic. Instead of securing the blessings of liberty they now want to deprive you of the blessings of liberty and promote the general destruction of America by destroying the Constitution.

    By the Comrades and others I just e-mailed my Senator Scott Brown in regards to this plan. How about you ?

    Anyone in their right mind would see this as an act against the people of this Country and I would exercise my rights under the law to act upon it legislatively it can be done. This Administration is a Stealth Initiative style of Monarchy. I for one will stand against it!

    It was bad to started, before I read it.  Now that I have read the complete bill it is even worse.  We must stop this bill.
