Truman pledges federal enforcement of laws to governors
Former President Harry S. Truman, speaking at the dedication ceremony of a family farm near Grandview, asserts that governors cannot nullify federal laws and that it is the president’s duty to enforce them. He warns that if a governor fails to enforce laws, federal authority must act, citing past nullification movements in South Carolina. The remarks come amid a Boy Scouts meeting in Kansas City and cover tensions between state and federal power.
