While there is federal preemption in some spheres, and there could potentially be restraints, congress cannot affirmatively command states or their political subdivisions (i.e., their LEOs) to actively DO anything.
The Feds lack the manpower to actively police the nation.
So long as the people, the states, and non-federal LEOs understand this, it's just hot air.
My fear is that the people will request it.
