the Feds threatened to cut off funds if the states didn't pass seat belt laws.
MmmHmmm. And the sanctuary cities and states say the feds can't cut their funds for not cooperating with ICE.
The seat belt law is not the only thing they did this on. The legal drinking age in Alabama was raised from 19 to 21 under a threat to cut off federal money if it wasn't passed.
Yep . Drinking age used to be 19 in Alabama , 18 in TN. till the Feds stuck their nose in.
Yep I lived in TN when all that changed. Went from 18 to 19 when I was 19 and became 21 when I was 21. Not that it stopped me at 16 when it was 18
