Hypocrisy

The Federal Government was created by the people for the people as a way to keep the United States together. When the states ratified the U.S. Constitution they became part of the United States. That is why I don't understand why states are trying to fight the Federal Government, the government represents the states as one country. So I don't know why states controlled by Republicans are trying to pass dumb laws that go against federal laws, they are going to waist tax payer money on cases that are not going to go their way.
