    State agencies will still be in place, will they not? I wouldn’t eat the food or drink the water were I in a red state…

      Most, if not all in some cases, funding for state-level regulatory agencies comes directly from their federal counterparts. This will essentially kill state agencies as well.

      Or at the very least, they will be severely reduced in terms of staff and purview.

      And that’s just the states that don’t decide to follow the administration’s lead and do the same thing to their state level agencies.
