Constitutional Educator: States Should Secure Their Own Borders at Urging from “the American People”

At approximately the 26:00 mark in her Monday radio show, constitutional educator, author and speaker KrisAnne Hall began a discussion of the current federal impasse over the building of a “border wall” along the U.S.-Mexico border.

Hall headlined the segment as “the only true border solution.”

She followed that with, “It’s not ‘build the wall’; it’s ‘secure our borders.'” She said that constitutionally, the states “delegated” power to the federal government to provide for national security but that in the absence of federal action, each “state government” is empowered to protect its people.

“The states are independent, sovereign governments,” Hall asserted, with their authority coming from “the American people.”  She posited that “when the federal government fails, we don’t have to sit around and wait” for change to occur. Rather, she said, “It is our responsibility.”

Trouble with that is all it takes is one state to refuse to cooperate. Like California.

Its why border enforcement necessarily falls to the federal government.

How long before Arizona, Nevada and Idaho have to take action to "secure their borders" from California, Oregon, and Washington ...?  ;)
