Georgia Senator Dawsons Speech on State Rights and Interposition
In a Georgia Senate session, Mr. Dawson argues the minority substitute upholds Jeffersonian State Rights, cites Virginia Kentucky resolutions, and asserts Georgia may interpose against federal overreach. He urges adherence to the 1798 1799 resolutions and traces interposition through 1827 1828 Georgia South Carolina actions and Indian treaties to justify state sovereignty and nullification as constitutional remedies.
