Mmmmmkay. . . .

Art I, Section 10, Clause 1, Constitution of the United States of America:

“No State shall enter into any Treaty, Alliance, or Confederation; grant Letters of Marque and Reprisal; coin Money; emit Bills of Credit; make any Thing but gold and silver Coin a Tender in Payment of Debts; pass any Bill of Attainder, ex post facto Law, or Law impairing the Obligation of Contracts, or grant any Title of Nobility.”

In case they try to argue this wasn’t a treaty, and thus absolutely barred to states, the next paragraph, last sentence says states shall not enter “any agreement or compact” ... with any foreign power without consent of Congress or in such imminent danger as will not admit of delay. So either the world will end in a week without this or they have to ask Congress and get permission even if it isn’t a treaty. Even the 9th circus can’t save this.

:No State shall enter into any Treaty, Alliance, or Confederation...

I was wondering if this broke any federal laws. Apparently, yes.
