           By Mr. HUIZENGA of Michigan:
        H.R. 1699.
       Congress has the power to enact this legislation pursuant 
     to the following:
       Article 1, Section 8, Clause 3--To regulate Commerce with 
     foreign Nations, and among the several States, and with the 
     Indian Tribes.
       Amendment X--Nothing in the Constitution authorizes the 
     Federal government to do anything other than those things 
     enumerated (coin money, enter into treaties, conduct a 
     Census--which are inherently governmental). Thus, under 
     Amendment X, the right to carry out commercial activities is 
     reserved to the States, respectively, or to the people.
