Okay, I got it. It's an AMENDED Law. Just like a said. They've ALWAYS had
the power to enforce this at ANY level. They've also always had the "law".
This is simply adding to it(ratified).

You're telling me state officials can't enforce federal law????

This just sounds to me that NC is cleaning up it's policy to mirror the
feds policy on CB equipment. They've had the authority to seek/confiscate
said equipment for as long as there has been federal legislation on CB
equipment.

I googled this and can't find a bill 257 from session 2003.

Some of you can try if you wish and help me out..LOL

Federal law trumps state law no matter what side the state law takes.
Any
normal judge would just say that a rule already exists to address the
issue
so state level action is a waste of time and taxpayers money.

But local jusisdictions (state/county etc) can't enforce federal law.
Having a local ordinance that mirrors the federal allows them to enforce
it.
