A few days ago, Gov. Brad Little, Attorney General Lawrence Wasden, House Speaker Scott Bedke, and Senate Pro Tempore Chuck Winder wrote a “strongly worded” letter to President Biden in which they stated the following: “If you choose to continue to move forward in this direction, the State of Idaho will have no choice but to take the necessary legal actions to uphold its sovereignty, check the overreach of power by federal bureaucracy, and uphold the system of checks and balances our Constitution guarantees.”
While this might seem like a powerful message to the President, many disagree.
The President does not have the authority to mandate businesses to force vaccine mandates. To respond to such nonsense is accepting the premise he has the authority to do that, and virtually signals, “we are with you Biden!” If the four of them actually did pursue legal action, does anyone really believe Idaho should be challenging things in the federal courts, where the lawsuit would be filed? Wouldn’t it be a lot easier if we just exercised our state sovereignty and 10th amendment and said, sorry Biden, that won’t work in Idaho. Alas that would take real leadership.
