Early winter is when state legislators are filing bills for the late winter/early spring session. Ask your legislators to make your state less helpless in the face of a Dem president. Here’s some ideas

• Limit out-of-state contributions to elections in your state (federal judges won’t let you ban them entirely). This is important for any secession referendum. Ban foreign funding of state/local elections. Federal law bans foreign contributions to federal races, not state races.
• Develop and fund a state defense force that can’t be federalized as its National Guard can. Florida & Utah are great examples. Utah passed a law that allows Utah National Guard equipment to be transferred to their “state guard,” which serves as the nucleus of any organization of civilian militia. That law had much more support than opposition in all 3 states that were polled: Louisiana, Hawaii, and South Carolina.

• Pass a Defend The Guard bill requiring a Congressional declaration of war or Governor’s approval for your state’s National Guard to be deployed out of state. That way, they’re still in your state when your gov needs them, & recruitment remains strong because they aren’t over-deployed.
• Variations on 2nd Amendment sanctuary state bills (SAPA). Check out Missouri’s SB23 2025 & the federal judge response. And Texas’ 2025 Anti-Red Flag Act (SB 1362), which passed.
• Create a state process for determining which federal actions are unconstitutional, so they can be rejected. The North Dakota House passed such a bill, but their Senate didn’t. Tom Glass’s website is the gold standard for this.

• Don’t let the FBI deputize your LEO’s without your approval – Tennessee SB2804/HB2912 (2024).
• A Montana House committee passed the Sheriff’s First Act HB439 (2025) It would require federal agents to notify the county sheriff before making arrests or conducting searches—reasserting local authority.
• Don’t let the state or local LEO’s to execute a federal arrest warrant without approval of your state AG – Texas HB1982 (2025).
• Give your governor a veto on extradition of US citizens to broken judicial systems, even federal ones, no matter what federal judges think.
• Last year, Texas passed SB 888, which allows the Texas Attorney General to defend Texas county and district attorneys in federal actions against them for enforcing Texas law.
• Federal judges like to approve settlements between a Dem mayor or Dem county government & a Dem DOJ to put your biggest city’s law enforcement, etc, under federal control. A state bill, like the law Louisiana passed last year, can require that localities notify & let your state AG negotiate the settlement instead.
• Last year, Texas passed HB 45, that gives the state AG power to prosecute if a local DA hasn’t prosecuted by 6 months after the act.
• Gold/silver/crypto currency. The US Constitution recognizes the right of states to create & regulate gold & silver currencies. Texas allows this to be spent using a debit card, based on physical gold at their vault. Fedgov or AI hackers can cut all of us off the dollar system.
• State strategic Bitcoin/Gold/Silver reserve – independence from the Fed’s failing fiat system (control of SWIFT)
• 63% support a state bank (for dollars, etc.) like N Dakota’s, so your society can survive when multi-state banks are pressured by forces outside your state lines, or there is a AI hack, EMP, economic collapse, etc, or the Left wants to cancel conservative activists. (poll of Hawaii, 2022)
• Texas passed SB 512 last year that pushes back against debanking of conservatives from Paypal
• A state legislature can also push back against ESG. West Virginia has done good work on this.
• Mississippi’s HB1484 (2025) would pay $1,000 to bounty hunters for each successful deportation of an illegal that they help facilitate New Texas laws on state deportation have survived federal scrutiny so far.
• Arkansas passed a law that only recognizes US CDLs (commercial driver’s licenses), not Canadian or Mexican CDL’s
• Ask your state legislators to pass a bill or resolution that says the state will form a new Union if certain red lines are crossed. Possible red lines: the National Popular Vote Compact goes into effect, or if Congress packs the Supreme Court, or awards statehood to DC or Puerto Rico, or passes Pelosi’s For the People Act & its companion, the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act. Sell it as a way for your state legislature to dissuade Congress from doing it.
• Obviously, the whole purpose of this website is to get a referendum on secession in a state that will vote yes. Louisiana should pass a bill that creates a plebiscite (special referendum) scheduled for 5 months after a red line is crossed. The bill should specify that a yes vote authorizes the state government to proceed with seceding along with other like-minded states.
• Pass a resolution inviting a neighboring blue state’s governor to negotiate with your governor on relocating your state line to include his red counties into your red state.

Most of these bills would make secession easier or more successful. Visit the Tenth Amendment Center to learn more about bill ideas that could support your state’s sovereignty.
