Constitutional Issues - Preservation of Constitution
9. Limiting Overreaching State Government
We recognize that the sovereignty of this state and its citizenry has been imperiled and threatened by the ongoing overreach of state elected officials and agencies. We therefore call for the enforcement of Article 2 of the Texas Constitution and restoration of our liberty by the following:
a. We must repeal and replace Texas Code 418.
b. No form of government shall ever again implement mass lockdowns on the people, our businesses, or our churches.
c. We oppose funding or implementation of any form of contact tracing.
d. The State Constitution must be changed to require the Legislature come to session after a declared emergency lasting 30 days or more in five or more counties.
e. The Texas Governor shall no longer use executive orders to create public policy or law, and shall no longer have the power to close businesses or declare some as "essential" or "non-essential."
f. The Governor's authority during an emergency shall not be delegated.
