I don’t think states rights is defined by whether they receive money from the federal government.

There is a history of federal funding drying up when states don't follow federal guidelines.

Louisiana didn't have ant federal funding for roads for years because they were refusing to raise the drinking age from 18 to 21.

I don't see how this addresses my point. State rights is the ability of a state to act on their own - not have unfettered access to federal funds.
