Landmark Legal Foundation's Amicus Curae Brief On Obamacare



The issue of the constitutionality or unconstitutionality of Obamacare is before the U.S. Supreme Court. Does Congress have the power to force people to purchase a good or service from a person or entity and can that person or entity impose a penalty on people for failing to purchase that good or service under the U.S. Constitution?

Within days the Court will be hearing oral arguments in support of and in opposition to Obamacare.

A number of states have filed suit against Obamacare. Public interest law firm Landmark Legal Foundation has filed an Amicus Curae brief in opposition to Obamacare challenging the individual mandate and penalty provisions.

For your information, here's the link to Landmark Legal Foundation's Amicus Curae brief: http://www.landmarklegal.org/uploads/11-398bsacLandmarkLegalFoundation_FILED.pdf

Mark Levin's Landmark Legal Demands Probe of IRS's Harassment of Tea Party


Michelle Malkin is reporting that talk-show host Mark Levin's Landmark Legal Foundation is demanding a probe into the harassment of Tea Party groups by the Internal Revenue Service.

At her blog, Malkin wrote:

Earlier this month, I reported on President Obama’s campaign bully brigade — and I noted the IRS intimidation of Tea Party groups across the country.

The Landmark Legal Foundation is not taking it lying down.

Today, conservative talk radio giant and movement warrior Mark Levin’s group requested an immediate investigation “into possible misconduct by the Internal Revenue Service’s Exempt Organization (EO) Division that calls into question the integrity of federal tax administration and IRS programs.” Specifically, the letter cites the feds’ information demands that went “far beyond the appropriate level of inquiry regarding the religious, charitable and/or educational activities of a tax exempt entity. The inquiries are not relevant to these permitted activities. Inquiries extend to organizational policy positions and priorities, personal and political affiliations, and associations of staff, board members and even family members of staff and board members.”


Levin has published two best-selling books, Liberty and Tyranny and Ameritopia.
