If neither dominant party represents you, consider the Libertarian Party.

Active Issues

There are Immediate Issues that should be addressed by the 118^th Congress. However, they will undoubtedly be ignored and held over for the 119^th Congress. They are:

Inflation

NO Budget

Secrecy

Ukraine

Immigraion

For the Sovereign States

There are additional issues that are more so matters for the sovereign states.

I base this on:

Effect – the effect is felt locally or within the state
Jurisdiction – the remedy is determined locally or within the state
Benefit – the benefit is felt by the state

My understaning comes from the Federalist Papers #42 thru #47. These papers clarify American Federalism as part of proper separation of power.

To be clear, the issues below belong to the sovereign states. As social issues they are NOT under federal jurisdiction.

State Issue	Effect	Jurisdiction	Benefit
Crime	✓	✓
Education/CRT	CRT	✓	Ed
Voting		✓	✓
Opioids	✓	✓
Covid	✓	✓

For the Federal Gov't

Some issues are explicitly assigned to the federal gov't.

Federal Issue	Your Input	My Thoughts
Guns		Amendment II is crystal clear … "shall NOT be infringed" And Caniglia v. Strom (2021) has already declared red flag laws unconstiutional – a 9-0 decision!
Capitol Protest		Congress administers the federal city. Let's see the Jan 6 surveillance video.

Life, Liberty!, Property
