Acknowledge Massachusetts as an independent country prior to its upcoming secession from the Union.

The people of the State of Massachusetts, in Convention assembled, on the 26th day of April, A.D., 2014, declared that the frequent violations of the Constitution of the United States, by the Federal Government, and its encroachments upon the reserved rights of the States, fully justified this State in then withdrawing from the Federal Union; but in deference to the opinions and wishes of the other high taxing states, she forbore at that time to exercise this right. Since that time, these encroachments have continued to increase, and further forbearance ceases to be a virtue.
