Furthermore, the resolution calls on the President to respect the authority of the Judicial Branch and directs the Secretary of State of Minnesota to distribute copies of this memorial to key federal officials, including the President, members of Congress, and Minnesota's congressional delegation. This action reflects a commitment to uphold the principles of checks and balances that are foundational to the U.S. government.
