4323: The Role of the Federation from Lincoln County Watch
By Anna Von Reitz
In answer to continuing questions about the role and powers of our Federation of States.1.
The Federation of States is not the Federal Government. The Federation
is what the Federal Government was named after. The Federation of
States is an instrumentality of all Fifty States which allows them to
act together for their mutual benefit.
Imagine
that you are one of fifty dairy farmers and you get together to build a
creamery to process your milk and turn it into various products ready
for market. By analogy, each State is a Dairy Farmer, and the
Federation is the Creamery.
2.
Many new people coming into Assemblies react as if the Federation is
the evil and mostly hated Federal Government and try to push back
against its authority. This is a gross misunderstanding on their part
and needs to be nipped in the bud.
Imagine
that you are one of fifty would-be bakers, and you want to make
chocolate chip cookies. Imagine that while you all have a good idea of
what a chocolate chip cookie looks like, none of you have a recipe.
So
all fifty of you set out to experiment with various ingredients trying
to work out a recipe for chocolate chip cookies and only God knows what
you come up with. Or how many times you try and fail.
This
is what would happen to the State Assemblies, if there was no common
template and structure--- no recipe--- imposed upon them from outside
each group and no Summoning Authority to guide the process.
The
State Assembly in Nebraska might be very different in form and function
from the State Assembly established in Rhode Island, which would lead
to unequal and unpredictable services being available or unavailable to
the people living in each State of the Union.
Some
States might, in such a situation, not have a State Militia or a State
Court System, some State Assemblies might meet once a year or once every
ten years and do relatively nothing to serve the needs of a State
Government.
If
it were left to "chance and druthers" it might not be possible to
identify and describe what a State Assembly is, just as fifty different
interpretations of "chocolate chip cookie" would result from random
experimentation.
To
prevent this chaos and establish a reasonable semblance of similar
structures and similar services provided by the institutions we call
"State Assemblies", those Summoning Powers entrusted with the power to
call the State Assemblies into Session, are also empowered to make sure
the State Assemblies are properly organized and seated.
The
Seating Process takes place in two stages. The first stage is seating
the General Assembly. This happens when people permanently living
within the borders of a State come forward and declare and record and
publish their birthright political status and nationality and home of
record.
These
people, once properly identified, form the General Assembly of the
Populace living in each physically defined State of the Union. They are
the "nation" part of the nation-state and the State Citizens in each
State are also the "Nation" operating in international jurisdiction.
The
Federation of States, one of the Summoning Powers, has directed and
completed the seating of a General Assembly for each one of the fifty
physically defined States of the Union.
To
be Fully Seated for all purposes and responsibilities of a State
Assembly, each Assembly must additionally complete their International
Business Assembly composed of State Citizens uniquely loyal to their
State of the Union, a State Assembly Militia, and a State Court
competent to practice American Common Law.
The
role of the Federation as Summoning Authority ends when each State
Assembly is Fully Seated. From there on, the States are responsible for
maintaining their own lawful operations as a State of the Union and as a
sovereign nation-state, and the Federation resumes its duties in
international and global jurisdictions without the additional duty of
oversight that has been imposed upon it by the present circumstance.
Until
the day when all the State Assemblies are organized and competent to
function on their own, the Federation Coordinators who are volunteer
State Nationals from the General Assembly in each State are charged with
the responsibility to guide the Assembling Process in their State and
to act as Go-Betweens between their State Assembly and the Federation
to get answers to questions that arise during the assembly process.
Coordinators
stand up as individuals and volunteer to receive training and undergo
vetting to work for the Federation in this capacity. They are obligated
to follow the template defining the structure and ultimately providing
the four fundamental functions of all State Assemblies for their State
of the Union.
Coordinators
are not chosen by the yet-to-be seated Assembly. If they were, it would
be too easy for a small group of people to redefine the role of the
Coordinators and also redefine the structure, functions, and duties of a
State Assembly, so as to render the entire process and its results
meaningless or foreign.
The
Federation is one of three (3) possible Summoning Authorities and the
only one presently active and available to oversee the assembling
process for the State Assemblies.
Without
the Federation and its work and role, there would be no State
Assemblies in Session, and there would be no means to call the State
Assemblies into Session.
It
was precisely this chicken-and-egg dilemma, being unable to call
our States into Session, that our Enemies counted upon to keep our
actual State Governments dormant and our people enslaved.
So
now you know what the role of the Federation is, and more important,
you know why-- if not for the Federation acting as Summoning Authority
-- there would be no discipline and no template and no sane definition
of what a State Assembly is or what a State Assembly does.
Our
Forefathers realized that they were assisted in their development from
having had a Colonial House of Burgesses and Colonial Governments
established prior to their Independence. The Summoning Powers were
defined as a means to reliably preserve and maintain the structures and
functions and definitions of our American Government, should our present
need ever arise.
The
"recipe" was passed down, generation to generation, to make sure that
we all know what a State Assembly is, the job that a State Assembly
does, the organizational structure of a State Assembly, and both the
powers and the responsibilities that a State Assembly holds.
If
this were not so, our country and our individual States would have no
clear-cut way forward, no sure structure to depend upon, and no overall
means to provide the functions and services of State Government for our
people on a country-wide basis.
Thankfully,
we have our traditions and customs and sure means to serve us at this
juncture in our history, and we may firmly rely on the State Assembly
building blocks that are crucial to our success.
Thankfully,
too, we have our Summoning Authorities in place, able to direct and
oversee the assembling process to ensure a modicum of uniformity in each
State Government, in that each of the State Assemblies have a similar
basic structure, and fulfill similar basic functions for the people they
serve.
The
words "State Assembly" in Michigan still mean the same basic thing as
"State Assembly" in California, however different the groups of people
operating these institutions might be.
You can thank the Federation of States for that beneficial outcome.
