Okay. That makes sense. For example, federal regulations mandate certain
area's conduct emissions testing on vehicles. But states do NOT have to
enforce it. However, if they do not, they lose certain grants/aid/monies
etc.

But as far as this subject goes....this is NOT a new "law". It's simply
verbiage added to an existing law(ratified/amended) at the state level,
taken from the federal level.

It may be that they can't enforce federal regulation (as opposed to law).
IANAL.

The FCC had a bulletin on this some time back which explained it in terms
of making it possible for local authorities to enforce FCC regs.
