This is a similar argument made a few years ago when Oklahoma’s attorney general when Colorado passed legal maryjane. They also lined up Kansas and Nebraska to enter into the suit.

Someone pointed out to them if those states challenged and prevailed over Colorado, then Colorado and other states could do the same over our laxer gun laws.

California has also used this threat to avoid challenges to its strict environmental regulations. It makes sense; this is also the primary reason why intra-state challenges are, as a rule, not permitted before the Supreme Court as a matter of course. This came up in the context of Texas v. Pennsylvania et al., when felon Attorney General Ken Paxton tried to sue other states for violating Texas’s electoral rights.
