NEW HOLLAND, PA -- Alabama Chief Justice Roy Moore has been selected as the recipient of the 2016 Bill of Rights Award by the Bill of Rights Bicentennial Committee (BORBC) of Concordville, Pennsylvania. The award was announced on December 15, 2016, the 225 th anniversary of the adoption of the Bill of Rights.
Chairman of the BORBC Committee, Carris Kocher said, "Judge Roy Moore's courageous standing on the Tenth Amendment is what earned him the 2016 Bill of Rights Award. This is the constitutional ground on which Judge Roy Moore has standing in his actions as the Chief Justice of Alabama. It would be well for all of us to have a look at what rights 'of the States' and what other rights 'of the people' this amendment has reference to," said Kocher.
