We are a group of Virginia citizens concerned by the deluge of federal spending and its impact on taxpayers, particularly where Congress creates new state programs by affixing certain conditions to the receipt of funding found within the Stimulus Bill. We wish to reaffirm the founding principles of Federalism under the 10th Amendment of the Constitution of the United States and declare that the Commonwealth of Virginia is sovereign and has authority to claim powers not specified or granted to the federal government.
