These are the resolutions and uniform codes for the reserved Militia of the Several States, established on _____________ 2020 pursuant to the 2^nd Amendment:

Preamble—The militia being necessary to the security of a free State shall consist of every able-bodied male citizen of the respective States and every able-bodied male of foreign birth who has declared his intention to become a citizen, who is more than eighteen years of age, and shall be divided into two classes-the “Organized Militia” and the remainder to be known as the “Reserve Militia,” a/k/a the “Unorganized Militia. Whose purpose is to “Insure Domestic Tranquility” and “Secure the Blessings of Liberty” by being prepared to suppress insurrections and repel invasions[1] and, protect the unalienable rights of the People of their respective state by supporting the responsibilities that our United States Constitution delegates. “The safety and prosperity of nations Ultimately and Essentially depend on the protection and blessing of Almighty God; and the national acknowledgment of this truth is not only an indispensable duty, which the people owe to Him, but a Duty whose natural influence is favorable to the Promotion of that morality and piety, without which social happiness cannot exist, nor the blessings of a free government be enjoyed.”[2]

Whereas, We the People of these Several States recognize that our Heritage is Common Law (rule by the mind of our Creator) and our inheritance is Liberty. The Militia, being the Sovereign People themselves the guardians of our Constitution, who's prime directive is to secure Common Law and watch for the stealthy encroachments upon the fruit of our heritage, being Liberty by the Grace of God and not man.

Whereas, We the People of these Several States recognize and declare the exclusive necessity of our Militia to the security of our State in freedom and are:

Resolved that, We the People of these Several States recognize and declare that our United States Constitution is an affirmation of our State’s common-law Militia;

Resolved that, We the People of these Several States recognize and declare that the Congress and presidents must draw their authority only from our U.S. Constitution, that said Constitution and each of the several States hold their authority direct from the People of the several States, and that the Militia of each State comprise the People of that State;

Resolved that, We the People of these Several States recognize and declare that our U.S. Constitution arranges duties under its four Militia Clauses among four classes of men: congressmen, State legislators, U.S. presidents, and individual Americans;

Resolved that, We the People of these Several States recognize and declare that we, the People of the several United States of our Union, by our U.S. Constitution, have delegated to the President certain, yet limited, responsibilities respecting the Militia of the several States;

Resolved that, We the People of these Several States recognizes concurrent jurisdiction of the Militia of the several States: this State’s Governor having jurisdiction of this State’s Militia, while the President of the United States also has jurisdiction, under the restraints and according to the standards and rules our U.S. Constitution and Congress has set for him;

Resolved that, We the People of these Several States recognizes this concurrent jurisdiction of the Militia of each State arises from an incontestable dual sovereignty of each of the several States and of the United States;[3]

Resolved that, We the People of these Several States recognizes our United States Constitution charges Congress alone with providing rules for calling forth the Militia;

Resolved that, We the People of these Several States recognizes our United States Constitution limits the reasons a president can call the Militia of the several States or any part of these into the service of the United States to only three: (1) to execute the Laws of the Union, (2) suppress Insurrections and (3) repel Invasions;[4]

Resolved that, We the People of these Several States recognizes our United States Constitution gives the President authority over any member of this State’s Militia only when called into the actual Service of the United States;[5]

Resolved that, We the People of these Several States recognizes our United States Constitution reserving each State, the Appointment of the Officers, and the Authority of training the Militia according to the discipline prescribed by Congress;[6]

Resolved that, We the People of these Several States recognizes each State, accordingly, has the common-law responsibility to provide practical standards for its Militia: the kind of firearm and amount of ammunition each Militiaman must himself provide himself, keep, and bear; the training, discipline, and skill with this firearm, to which he must attain at his cost; and any penalties for failure to so do;

Resolved that, We the People of these Several States recognizes our United States Constitution bars infringement of each and every individual’s God-given right to keep and bear arms, forbidding any act that interferes with this individual and fundamental right to keep and carry a gun;[7]

Resolved that, We the People of these Several States recognizes there is no other kind of fundamental right but individual;

Resolved that, We the People of these Several States recognizes our United States Constitution’s Amendment II states that security and freedom at the same time are possible only as each Militiaman of each State fulfills his duty in accord with our United States Constitution’s four Militia Clauses;[8]

Resolved that, We the People of these Several States recognizes in order for our State to have the security of a free State, Amendment II bars the national government or any State government from interfering (infringement) with any one of the People’s non-delegable right and duty to keep and bear arms;

Resolved that, We the People of these Several States recognizes Congress has neglected our United States Constitution’s mandate to provide rules for training the Militia of the several States;

Resolved that, We the People of these Several States recognizes the Militia of our several States and the offices it fills are unique from any standing army or police force; accordingly, each of our United States Constitution’s assignment of responsibilities respecting the Militia of the several States are non-delegable and un-assignable to any regular or reserve Army, Navy, or National Guard; or to any police force or other bureaucracy or government agent;

Resolved that, We the People of these Several States recognizes our United States Constitution’s recognition and affirmation of the Militia of the several States is the supreme Law of the Land;[9]

Resolved that, We the People of these Several States recognizes our United States Constitution now depends upon no other class of persons to protect the rights and freedoms of the People and of this State except the Militia of the several States;

Resolved that, We the People of these Several States recognizes that States must never neglect its Constitution-required duty under our Second Amendment to never infringe upon the common-law right of the People to keep and bear arms, but to always encourage the People to keep themselves armed and skilled in the use of arms;

Resolved that, We the People of these Several States recognizes unless the People of these Several States fulfill and enforce our United States Constitution’s four Militia Clauses, the federal government will gain an unconstitutional monopoly of force and power, and will oppress both the States and the People—as is now seen;

Therefore, in recognition of the foregoing, We the People of these Several State hereby enact these States Militia Act: We reject the federal government’s unconstitutional monopoly of force and power and the oppression of We the People, and therefore We the Sovereign People at the grassroots level will rebuild the “Reserved Militia” in all 3134 counties, afterwards We the People will then enforce the United States Constitution’s four Militia Clauses, dividing the said voluntary militia into the Militia and the remainder of its members into the Reserved Militia.

The following are the uniform Codes for the reserved Militia of the several States necessary to Reestablish the American Militia Necessary to the Security of a Free and Independent State.

20) County officers, upon being chosen and appointed shall, within one month of their appointment and by the Governor’s writ designating the time, assemble at their County’s courthouse and shall each cast one secret ballot for commanding officer of their County’s Militia.
