I find it most interesting how concepts and ideas regarding the federal government may also apply to all government, including our own Glastonbury Landowners Association:
Nullification is explained by the Tenth Amendment of the Constitution of the United States:
"The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the states, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people."
Thought: “Nullification is the Jeffersonian idea that the states of the American Union must judge the constitutionality of the acts of their agent, the federal government, since no impartial arbiter between them exists. When the federal government exercises a particularly dangerous power not delegated to it, the states must refuse to allow its enforcement within their borders.” – Thomas E. Woods, Jr.
Localized: "Nullification is the Jeffersonian idea that the landowners must judge (the constitutionality of) the acts of their agent, the GLA Board of Directors, since no impartial arbiter between them exists. When the GLA Board of Directors exercises a particular power not delegated to it, the landowners must refuse to allow its enforcement.
