What happens if a law is deemed unconstitutional?
Currently, government can continue on as if nothing has happened. The separation of powers forbids any branch of government to dictate to the other or exercise powers not with the scope of it own branch. Under the proposed amendment, all government activities affected by an unconstitutional or unlawful provision of law must immediately cease, for to continue would cause harm to the people.
