Commenting on Perry’s endorsement, Newt Gingrich said he has asked Perry to head up a Tenth Amendment enforcement project. Here’s the rough transcript:

I have asked him to head up a Tenth Amendment enforcement project reaching out to every government, reaching out to state legislatures, working with conservative legislators in Washington so we can have a strong platform plank in Tampa in August on the Tenth Amendment, and we can have a very strong bill we can put in the 21 century contract with Americans in September, and we can then pass that legislation no later than the end of the first quarter of 2013.

Newt Gingrich did write the introduction to Perry’s book, Fed Up!

Perry has accepted the offer to run this Tenth Amendment program.
