I can’t quite get my head around this. Why does the 10th Amendment exist? Where in the constitution does congress get the power to determine the definition of marriage or write laws that already are taken care of by the Bill of Rights? I suppose this is out of fear of what federal courts will do. Or perhaps Cruz doesn’t have the cojones to stand up to Obama if Obama breaks out his pen and phone again. (My comments are directed more at Republicans as a whole than to single out Cruz.)

From the 14th Amendment.

What no one is getting is that these are CORPORATE LAWS.

How they are being applied to PEOPLE is the REAL problem.
