The federal government "eroded local control" and forbade states from enforcing immigration laws, despite itself being derelict in enforcing those laws: https://www.nytimes.com/2022/07/21/us/politics/supreme-court...

States agreed to some written terms, limiting their own sovereignty, to join a union. That union then ignores terms it dislikes. States try to enforce those terms, but suddenly the union changes tune, finds that enforcing (some) terms actually is important, and stops those states.

But preventing laws from changing from city to city is the real tragedy.
