The
Northwest Ordinance of the United States is part of our Organic Law and provides
a progressive means for Territories to become States, however, there has been no
Continental Congress since 1860 competent to actually enroll the States created
by Statehood Compacts.
The
"Congress" operating in DC since then has been operating in other capacities in
the international jurisdiction of the sea as a corporation and as the
"representatives" of a foreign constitutional democracy of 57 "states" including
the seven Insular States of Guam, Puerto Rico, etc. plus 50 inchoate Federal
States.
There
hasn't been a "Land Congress" since 1860. We haven't sent anyone to Philadelphia
(not DC) in a Fiduciary Deputy capacity to act in behalf of the Land
Jurisdiction in 150 years. Let that fact sink in.
Remember---
The Constitution we are owed has no 19th Amendment. Our Senators report to our
actual State Legislature on the Land and can be recalled. Our Congressmen are
accountable directly to the people. But we haven't operated our actual State
Legislatures on the Land and we haven't called a Continental Congress in many,
many decades.
This
is technically all right because we are the recognized sovereigns of the land
jurisdiction and if we don't want to do our job, there's nobody to force us to
do it. On the other hand, the work has piled up and the mayhem has increased. At
some point we have to remember who we are and do our part, call our Congress to
Philadelphia, and clear the backlog.
