While I agree with the Governors, frankly they should shut up. States have no Consitutional right to interfere in foreign affairs.

I disagree that these governors should "shut up". They are closer geographically to their constituents than Washington politicians. Perhaps this represents how a majority of Americans feel and it is being expressed.

Please.

They are not "interfering with foreign affairs." The Governors are expressing their opinion, and that of the majority of Americans in those states.

Then why does the federal government interefere in state affairs? Various states have already been sued because their laws conflict with those rotten globalist trade agreements.
