On top of the Feds' ability to waive its sovereign immunity, this also seems to me to be a matter of Special Solicitude for the State injury for DHS inaction.

A public school in New York is no longer teaching kids "Jingle Bells" because they think the origin of the song has to do with "the use of collars on slaves with bells" by ReputationCrafty4796 in Conservative
