Let’s get work people! - Simon
Time to talk 10th amendment. In a stunning case for our side on Friday ... "In her ruling, Judge Lindsay C. Jenkins said that the Tenth Amendment, which protects people from federal government overreach, shielded the decision of local law enforcement to avoid collaboration with Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and other immigration agencies." Trump sued Chicago and the state of Illinois and lost.

This will give cover to my County Supervisors legal counsel on our resolution to direct the County Sheriff not to cooperate with ICE if they don't have warrants, unmasked faces nor ID, either nametag/and or badge.
I encourage everyone who is working on resolutions to include language to stop ICE unconstitutional gestapo tactics. It violates 4th amendment; illegal search and siezure, 5th amendment" due process and now 10th amendment: The feds can't force the states to cooperate with ICE.
Spread the word...
Thank you, Simon, for providing this page for open discussion about resolutions of condemnation of the executive branch! It is an efficient way for Hopium subscribers to contact one another to share information about our progress and to help one another.
The Bernalillo County Commission's resolution was introduced, debated and passed / approved (by final vote of 4:1 as revised) at a public hearing on June 24, 2025. A two-step process is required, although the approved resolution is final. It will be finally adopted (read aloud; signed by the Commissioners, County Attorney and County Clerk) at the next meeting on August 4 at 5 pm. I plan to give oral comment to thank them.
In contrast, the Santa Fe County Commission used a one-step hearing process, so the introduction, debate, vote of approval and final adoption were all done at one hearing. The Commissions do not meet during the month of July, delaying the hearing in Doña Ana County until August.
