They should, as many are doing, reject unconstitutional laws first in the courts and then by stronger efforts if the courts fail to sustain them. Personally I don’t think it will come to that.

I will say that their efforts would be very much easier if the 17th amendment were not on place and the various state legislatures still had power over the senate.
