Estate law is a good one. The states (not the feds) own this one. Changes to estate/intestacy law must occur at the state level, and a fed "change" may be considered a "10th Amerndment" violation despite any argument espousing the "Equal Protection" clause. ..

Which is why we must Vote NO on amendment 2 in my opinion...this is a state law....that must be voted against! Ironically the state published information on their website on each amendment...and with attached websites for voters to look at...they ONLY published one website...the one that is FOR this law!! Doesn't seem right to me!! A little one sided...the "RIGHT" side...but the wrong things to do!
