The Montana State Legislature is first to introduce a broad-based state nullification bill designed to reassert the states right to rein in the federal government by nullifying all unconstitutional acts committed by the three branches of the federal government.

Montana HOUSE BILL NO. 382 sponsored by Rep. D. Skees is titled - "AN ACT PROHIBITING INFRINGEMENT OF THE STATE OF MONTANA'S CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHT TO NULLIFICATION OF ANY FEDERAL STATUTE, MANDATE, OR EXECUTIVE ORDER CONSIDERED UNCONSTITUTIONAL BY THE STATE; ENACTING THE MONTANA NULLIFICATION REAFFIRMATION ACT; AND PROVIDING A RETROACTIVE APPLICABILITY DATE."

The bill is based upon a Model State Nullification Reaffirmation Act researched and drafted by the Constitutional Justice Division of The United States Patriots Union of Sheridan Wyoming.

In cooperation with strategic partner Stand Up America, led by MG Paul Vallely, US Army (Retired), the Patriots Union has distributed the Model Bill to more than 30 state legislatures through its many member/activists across the states.

Many of these states are working to adapt the model bill to suit their state interests, but Montana is the first to actually introduce the bill, largely in the form in which it was originally presented to state legislators.

If passed, the bill reasserts the states right to nullify any federal statute, executive order or judicial intrusion which the state legislature deems unconstitutional and abusive towards the states or the people of the states.
