Huckabee: Washington needs ‘new type of leadership’
Former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee criticized the federal government for what he said was its lack of understanding of how state government works and called for “a new type of leadership” that does.“We (governors) understand because unfunded mandates come stomping down on top of us, wrecking our state budgets, creating a complete imbalance, ignoring the 10th amendment,” he said. “That’s one reason that a lot of us are ready to say it’s time for a new type of leadership that respects the 10th amendment, that respects the fact that governors are out there trying to fight to build a decent education system, create jobs, make sure that we can give families a chance to have a decent way of living.”

The 10th Amendment concerns powers delegated to states.
