Actually, I don't think it is Constitutional. Check out Article I, Section 10, Paragraph 3:

No State shall, without the Consent of Congress, lay any duty of Tonnage, keep Troops, or Ships of War in time of Peace, ,b>enter into any Agreement or Compact with another State, or with a foreign Power, or engage in War, unless actually invaded, or in such imminent Danger as will not admit of delay.

My emphasis. This seems to me to be a compact among states, especially since the laws as passed by various states all call for the law to only go into effect after other states have taken a similar action.

enter into any Agreement or Compact with another State,


The compact part is interesting but a question. Don't states have existing compacts between them now, such as CCW, Drivers Licenses, etc?
