Presented by: Tenth Amendment Center
Founding Sponsor: Granite State Patriots
Patron Sponsor: Americans for Prosperity, New Hampshire
Associate Sponsors: New Hampshire Liberty Alliance, MassLPA, The Lucidicus Project, GraniteGrok

Thomas E. Woods joins us in New Hampshire to talk about his book, Nullification: How to Resist Tyranny in the 21st Century.
(more speakers listed below)

Woods is the New York Times bestselling author of eleven books, including Meltdown and The Politically Incorrect Guide to American History.

A senior fellow at the Ludwig von Mises Institute, he holds a bachelor's degree in history from Harvard and his master's, M.Phil., and Ph.D. from Columbia University.

Through historical writings, case studies, and speeches by the Founding Fathers, Woods will give you a logical, moral, and constitutionally sound case for nullification, revealing:

  • How we can roll back Obamacare, cap and trade, and other unconstitutional expansions of federal power through nullification

  • Why the Founding Fathers believed that nullification was the "moderate middle ground"

  • Why the Tenth Amendment to the Constitution reserves to the states the power to nullify unconstitutional laws

  • Why states - not the Supreme Court - should arbitrate disputes between the states and the federal government over the constitutionality of the federal government's actions.

He currently serves as president of the Downsize DC Foundation and DownsizeDC.org, which states as its mission, "We believe the federal government has grown too centralized, too intrusive, and too expensive. We believe in constitutional limits, smaller government, civil liberties, federalism, and low taxes. We want to end laws and programs that don't work, cause harm, and violate the Constitution. We want to restore the full force of the 9th and 10th amendments, which reserve most social functions to the people and the states."

Catherine Bleish is the founder and former executive director of the Liberty Restoration Project.
