IF YOU ONLY DO ONE THING

Why This Score
This represents normal federalism dynamics where states exercise their constitutional authority to regulate technology in the absence of federal action. The 'opposition' framing creates artificial tension, but states regulating AI is routine governance with minimal constitutional implications. The mechanism is null, indicating no federal action is actually occurring—this is a non-event dressed as conflict.
