Rep. Ralph Norman (R-S.C.) says the 10th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution bars the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) from federalizing suburban zoning powers.

“Well, a couple of things. No. 1, it’s against the 10th Amendment,” Norman told The Epoch Times during an interview on April 13, as he returned from an inspection tour of the immigration crisis at the U.S. border with Mexico. “The federal government should not be meddling in what counties, municipalities, and states should rule on.”
