State sovereignty is fundamental to the preservation of federalism, individual liberty, and the constitutional framework of the United States. State sovereignty isn't just about legal independence. It's also about shielding local government from the sway of outside money, keeping the core of republican governance intact as the founders intended. It's critical for maintaining the integrity and independence of Idaho’s lawmaking processes.

Constitutional Sovereignty

The Tenth Amendment reserves powers not delegated to the federal government to the states or the people, acting as a bulwark against federal overreach and external financial influence. This amendment is viewed as the legal foundation that keeps state governance free from undue outside interference.

Limited Federal Government

By limiting the federal government's scope, state sovereignty ensures that state legislatures, not distant federal entities or out-of-state funders, dictate local policies. This prevents well-funded, external interests from swaying state law in directions not reflective of local voters' wishes.

Local Control

There's a strong advocacy for governance by those closest to the community. Local control not only makes the government more responsive but also shields state legislation from being manipulated by those with deep pockets outside the state's borders.

Protection Against Federal Overreach

Sovereign states can resist mandates or influences that do not respect local values, laws, or constitutional interpretations, including those from out-of-state donors or interest groups. This includes opposition to initiatives funded by external sources aiming to change state laws on issues like healthcare, voting systems, or social policies.

Cultural and Moral Autonomy

State sovereignty allows for the reflection of local cultural, moral, and religious preferences without being swayed by national or international agendas pushed by external funding. This is crucial for maintaining local integrity and resisting the homogenization of state policies by out-of-state money.

Secure Idaho is dedicated to upholding state sovereignty, which is vital for federalism, liberty, and the U.S. Constitution. We aim to keep Idaho free from out-of-state money's influence, making sure local governance stays true to the founders' republican ideals. We focus on the Tenth Amendment to stop federal overreach, pushing for state control of local policies and resisting outside influence. Secure Idaho stands for local rule, limited federal power, and cultural independence, ensuring Idaho's laws and values aren't dictated by external forces or funds.
