Background
This past year many patriots have strongly supported HCR 11 and SCR 13, the Ohio House and Senate Concurrent Resolutions for State Sovereignty. The Senate has passed SCR 13. But the Speaker of the House will not bring HCR 11 to the floor of the House for a vote. If he did, it might fail to be approved by the Democrat majority. If it were passed in the House, it is doubtful that Governor Strickland would sign it, and possibly antagonize the White House. If it were passed and signed, it is doubtful that Governor Strickland and our two U.S. Senators and 18 U.S. Congressmen would abide it; it is only a Resolution and does not have the compulsory status of a law.
Accordingly emphasis has shifted toward enacting a State Sovereignty Constitutional Amendment in the 2010 General Election. The amendment has been drafted, the necessary 1000 signatures have been collected to initiate the formal petition process, and the Secretary of State is verifying those initial signatures and the language of the drafted amendment. As soon as the Secretary of State approves the formal collection of petition signatures we will begin to collect the necessary 750,000 signatures to put this amendment on the 2010 ballot. This will be done county by county, as the county Boards of Election will be responsible for verifying the signatures as belonging to registered voters.
Please enter your contact information on the Contact Us page if you are interesting in signing the petitions, or collecting signatures on the petitions, when we receive permission to begin the petition drive. Thank you.
