Some people say nullification can’t work because the federal government is too big and powerful. They’re wrong. Most of us nullify every single every day.
In practice, nullification is really a numbers game. The government doesn’t have anywhere near the resources to enforce all its so-called “laws,” regulations, and mandates. @mmaharrey10th pic.twitter.com/zrWOq38owH

There are two definitions of nullification. One is legal, the other, practical. When we talk about nullification as a strategy, we generally mean the practical definition. A law remains on the books but it is unenforceable or simply no longer has any practical effect.
