Pretty negative in terms of state power to defend itself. Does an invasion have to be in concert with gunfire?
Section 10: Powers Denied to the States
No State shall enter into any Treaty, Alliance, or Confederation; grant Letters of Marque and Reprisal; coin Money; emit Bills of Credit; make any Thing but gold and silver Coin a Tender in Payment of Debts; pass any Bill of Attainder, ex post facto Law, or Law impairing the Obligation of Contracts, or grant any Title of Nobility.
No State shall, without the Consent of the Congress, lay any Imposts or Duties on Imports or Exports, except what may be absolutely necessary for executing it's inspection Laws: and the net Produce of all Duties and Imposts, laid by any State on Imports or Exports, shall be for the Use of the Treasury of the United States; and all such Laws shall be subject to the Revision and Controul of the Congress.
No State shall, without the Consent of Congress, lay any Duty of Tonnage, keep Troops, or Ships of War in time of Peace, enter into any Agreement or Compact with another State, or with a foreign Power, or engage in War, unless actually invaded, or in such imminent Danger as will not admit of delay.

The federal government is supposed to be defending the border not facilitating an invasion. https://americarenewing.com/issues/policy-brief-how-states-can-secure-the-border/Known as the guarantee clause, Article IV, Section 4 of the Constitution states, “The United States shall guarantee to every State in this Union a Republican Form of Government, and shall protect each of them from Invasion; and on Application of the Legislature, or of the Executive (when the Legislature cannot be convened) against domestic violence.” In light of the recent and very wrong decree by SCOTUS if I were Abbot I would kick the Border Patrol out and activate the militia to defend the border. That would make the hornets nest a bit nasty.

With TX oil $$$ that would say something...and hurt.

This last line says it all and gives Gov. Abbot carte blanche to do what ever he needs to do. Joe Biden has totally ignored the Supreme Court and the Constitution for the last 3 years of his reign. It's time the governors picked up the fight. kwg

It would be nice for States to start doing what has been proposed in Utah. This isn't really related to the feds' refusal to execute the law, but it IS a step in the right direction when the States start telling the feds to FO. Bill to negate federal acts in Utah

But you are leaving out all the sub clauses that completely describe the purpose and meaning, and of which has been totally pointed to by the Supreme Court. Another words, you are leaving out all the fine print...

I doubt my little dab would cause much stir but if it would I'd be glad to start. You fellows would be reading another Randy Weaver story most likely.
