The Tenth Amendment Center to Celebrate the 10th Amendment with an Event and Rally in Orlando on 10-10-10, Starting at 10 a.m.

ORLANDO, Fla., Oct. 4 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- The Tenth Amendment Center is celebrating the 10th Amendment with a conference and rally on what they call "the historic date" of 10-10-10 in Orlando, FL. The event, the second stop of their national Nullify Now! tour, will focus on how states can exercise their constitutionally reserved powers to stop what are considered to be unconstitutional laws, regulations and mandates from the Federal government.

"The states don't have to obey unconstitutional federal laws," said Michael Boldin, executive director of the Center. "And that means, for example, no national health care mandates, no department of education, no bank bailouts, and even no federal marriage or marijuana laws."

Boldin continued, "The Constitution isn't about political parties, political ideologies or political candidates. It's about liberty, and limiting the federal government to certain enumerated powers, and nothing more. That way, the most difficult and divisive issues can be dealt with where the founders wanted them - in our states."

Speaking at the event will be a number of national and local personalities. Gary Johnson, the former governor of New Mexico who many think will be running for president as a republican in 2012, will be joined by New York Times best-selling author Thomas E. Woods Jr., who received his master's from Harvard and Ph.D. from Columbia, as keynote speakers for the event. Also speaking will be Jim Babka, president of DownsizeDC, Tampa-based author and activist Tom Mullen, and Trevor Lyman, best-known as the architect of the 2007 "Ron Paul money bombs" which resulted in the largest single-day fundraising efforts in election history.

Launched in September, 2010, the Nullify Now! tour is currently scheduled to visit six cities around the country (Ft. Worth, Orlando, Chattanooga, Phoenix, Los Angeles and Minneapolis), with ten more locations being planned for 2011, said event organizers. The tour focuses efforts on educating people that whatever their political persuasion is, they can affect far more change on a state, rather than a federal, level.
