Well, sort of. There was some small interstate skirmish back in the 1860’s.

More seriously, I don’t think the hissy-fits that people like Cuomo have were covered. Imagine that- it was supposed that the states could work out differences like mature men and women instead of going into a snit when a law was passed that another state didn’t like.

Can states require compete symmetry?

I would think if you closed applications from some states and not others, it would be unequal treatment. It bothers me that non essential government workers are used as weapons, kind of an unfair treatment of citizens also.
