    You’re right, there’s not much the federal government can do to force this directly, but indirectly, they can decide where federal funding goes. and Alabama gets 41.2% of it’s state revenue from federal funding.

      Which is why I actually find this low-key hilarious, because if this is somehow left to stand, it implies that states who are net providers (I.e. most blue states) can simply ignore the SC.

      Strategic thinking is not the GOP’s strong suit.
