Excerpt from Documents of the Senate of the State of New-York, Vol. 2: Fifty-Sixth Session, 1833
That this Assembly doth explicitly and peremptorily declare, that it views the powers of the Federal Government as resulting from the compact, to which the states are parties; as limited by the plain sense and intention of the instrument constituting that compact; as no farther valid than they are authorized by the grants enumerated in that compact, and that in case of a deliba rate, palpable and dangerous exercise of other powers not granted by the said compact, the States who are parties thereto, have the right, and are in duty bound to interpose for arresting the pro gress of the evil, and for maintaining within their respective limits the authorities, rights and liberties appertaining to them.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book details the debate on the constitutionality of the Alien and Sedition Acts passed by the US Congress in 1798. The author analyzes the objections raised by state legislators against these acts, with a specific focus on the Virginia and Kentucky Resolutions. They believed the acts were an overreach of federal authority, a violation of individual liberties, and a dangerous step toward tyranny. The book explores the arguments put forth by those who defended the acts as necessary for national security. Ultimately, the author examines the lasting impact of these acts on the balance of power between the federal government and the states, and their relevance to modern debates over government overreach and the protection of individual rights.
