Issues: Constitution

Texas' greatest freedom enumerated in our Constitution is the Tenth Amendment. This country is seeing a federal government that aggressively intrudes into our personal lives, our businesses, and our bank accounts--completely disregarding the powers delegated to the states by the United States Constitution.

To combat an overreaching federal government, Greg Abbott filed 30 lawsuits against the Obama Administration to protect Texas' sovereignty as Attorney General.

From the EPA to ObamaCare, Greg Abbott has challenged every attempt by the federal government to erode our states' rights. He has led Texas to resounding legal victories that shield our state laws and ensure that our Tenth Amendment rights are not infringed upon.

As Governor, Greg Abbott is one of the leading voices in America calling for an Article V Convention of States. Our nation's founders knew there would be a time when the federal government would overstep its authority, and they gave us a tool to deal with it in the Constitution.
