    So are dozens of others, that didn’t stop them from being enforced and acted up on.

    Unlike the laws that our constitution outlines, which are not enforced or observed.

      Well, technically congress can invent a financial reward for following its legislative incentives. So, Congress can essentially bribe a state into followibg its ideals, but a state can opt out in favor of self governance so long as it does jot interfere with a power expressed to Congress nor violate the amendments to the us constitution via the 14th and 15th Amendments. So, a state cannot create voting test laws and the such, but they can decide what a district does or doesn’t look like.
