Does the federal government have the right to regulate interstate commerce?

Better yet, since this is a PRIVATE group we are talking about, do PRIVATE groups have a right to advance their agenda?

Ah yes, the safe harbor for all authoritarians. Interstate commerce, interstate commerce!! I swear y'all should have it tattooed on your foreheads. Yes the Constitution does cover interstate commerce but what is being sold? And what harm, physical harm, is it doing? I could claim the same thing about cable television. I imagine there's some loser sitting in his altogethers watching too much HBO. Better ban it!!

No this is a moral issue and the Father of the Constitution stated exactly where this issue belonged. With the states

When trying to influence the federal government to pass legislation that will further destroy the intended balance of the Constitution, no they do not.
