States defying federal law and legalizing hemp and CBD oil is a great example of Nullification. Thomas Jefferson recommended it in the Virginia and Kentucky Resolutions. Jefferson called it the "Rightful Remedy".
The US congress has no authority to regulate a product-unless it crosses a state line. Our constitution only authorized about 8 things the General Government could do. Build forts, wage war, regulate interstate commerce, build a navy, and a few more. 95% of what the US government does is unconstitutional, thus null and void.
Fortunately, individuals and states have chosen to put the feds to the test on a few things.
Can the states ban or regulate substances? Absolutely. But not the feds-unless that specific item itself is in interstate commerce. The way we got into this expansive federal leviathon is through the New Deal and the Supreme Court case Wickard vs Filburn.
Filburn was a farmer in Dayton Ohio growing wheat to feed his own animals, not selling any wheat at all.
Here the Supreme Court ruled that the feds could regulate anything that Affected interstate commerce which was a huge expansion of federal power. 8 of the 9 justices had been appointed by FDR, after he had threatened to enlarge the court to 15.
Anyway, got to go. If you have time check out the The Tenth Amendment Center for more nullification information.
