From Jsonline: As Gov. Scott Walker contemplates whether to create a state health
care exchange under Obamacare, he will have to contend in the coming
legislative session with nine lawmakers who have said they back a bill
to arrest any federal officials who try to implement the health care
law.
Eight of the nine Republicans also have gone on record saying they
also want to write a law that would see airport screeners charged with
sexual assault if they conduct overly invasive pat-downs of passengers
going through security.
All nine also told a tea party-aligned group they backed passing
so-called "right-to-work" legislation; allowing people to carry guns
without having to get permits from the state; allowing people to buy
raw, or unpasteurized, milk; and blocking state funding for the federal
Real ID law that requires states to develop more secure driver's
licenses.
But their stance on the Affordable Care Act, or Obamacare, could
cause the most fireworks in the upcoming session. Walker must decide by
Friday whether the state will create a health care exchange under the
health care law or leave those duties to President Barack Obama's
administration.
Rep. Chris Kapenga (R-Delafield) is one of the nine from Wisconsin
who told the Campaign for Liberty he would back legislation to declare
Obamacare illegal and allow police to arrest federal officials who take
steps to implement it in Wisconsin. He said he believes the health care
law is unconstitutional, despite the U.S. Supreme Court's ruling that it
passes constitutional muster.
"Just because Obama was re-elected does not mean he's above the constitution," Kapenga said.
In addition to Kapenga, those listed as supporting the Campaign for
Liberty's positions are Sen. Mary Lazich of New Berlin; Reps. Don
Pridemore of Hartford; Erik Severson of Star Prairie; Tom Larson of
Colfax; Scott Krug of Wisconsin Rapids; and three Republicans elected
for the first time last week who will be sworn in early next year - Rob
Hutton of Brookfield, Mark Born of Beaver Dam and Dave Murphy of
Greenville.
Severson told the group he did not support the legislation on
Transportation Security Administration pat-downs, but backed the other
measures. The other current and newly elected lawmakers said they
supported the entire agenda of Campaign for Liberty, according to the group's website.
The Campaign for Liberty and others endorse a notion being promoted
by conservatives called nullification that holds that under the 10th
Amendment states can ignore federal laws if they choose. The 10th
Amendment says: "The powers not delegated to the United States by the
Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the
States respectively, or to the people." http://www.jsonline.com/news/statepolitics/nine-lawmakers-back-charging-federal-officials-who-implement-obamacare-here-n47kl10-179180251.html
Hopefully, some Nevada officials will also get the balls and step and not allow ObamaCare to become law in Nevada, and if anybody from the Federal government tries to force us to enforce ObamaCare, then they would be arrested. Maybe they can start with crybaby/Coward/Senile Harry Reid and thief Dina Titus.

Don't forget state Attorney General Catherin Cortez Masto, who chose her own party (Democrats) over her state's best interests when then Gov. Gibbons instructed her to initiate legal proceedings against this unconstitutional monstrosity. When she refused, he had to have a private firm file the suit.
