A House-passed bill that would prohibit the enforcement of certain federal gun laws is headed to the Senate floor but its detractors could keep the legislation from being passed before next month’s adjournment.

The Second Amendment Preservation Act would ban the state enforcement of any federal law or regulation which goes into effect after last year that limits the right of a person to own, possess or use a firearm, ammunition or accessory.

The bill also would prohibit accepting any federal funds for the enforcement of such laws or spending state funds on enforcement of any federal law or regulation which goes into effect after last year requiring the registration or confiscation of firearms.

“It’s unconstitutional,” he said, explaining that the Supremacy Clause of the U.S. Constitution would not allow the state to refuse to enforce federal law.

Given his lack of understanding of the Constitution this guy shouldn't be in an elected office with the power to make law.

It is settled law that the federal government cannot commandeer state governments or their subdivisions for the purpose of enforcing federal law. This bill merely codifies the state's existing authority.
 

 QUOTES TO REMEMBER
Guard with jealous attention the public liberty. Suspect everyone who approaches that jewel. Unfortunately, nothing will preserve it but downright force. Whenever you give up that force, you are ruined. — Patrick Henry, during Virginia's Convention to Ratify the Constitution (1788)
