The Tenth Amendment is the foundation of the Constitution. That’s how Thomas Jefferson saw it. He said, “I consider the foundation of the Constitution as laid on this ground: That "all powers not delegated to the United States, by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States or to the people."#constitution #constitutionday #founders #thomasjefferson #10thAmendment #tenthamendment #foundingfathers #constitutionalist #history #quote #quotes #qotd #nullify #nulli
