At what point is a state going to exercise its right of nullification and tell the federal government it has no authority over state matters? I realize the hell which would descend on the state, but at some point a group of states needs to stand up to the bully. Texas tried and failed, but a large enough group could scare the government.

Every federal mandate has a monetary value. States will adhere to the federal mandate, or forfeit money. Same ole BS. Follow the money.
