How many of these overreaching federal laws actually contain the word "Maine" in the place where the law defines its geographical reach? If the law fails to do so, then it is only municipal law made by Congress for DC, Guam, Puerto Rico, USVI, Guam, American Samoa, Mariannas.
Congress can make all sorts of busybody laws for the federal territories. The issue is to educate the States of the Union that they are not federal territories, and federal territorial law does not apply.
Public Law 86-70 AN ACT June 25, 1959 To amend certain laws of the United States in light of the admission of the State of Alaska into the Union, and for other purposes. [H. R. 7120] Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled, That this Act may be cited as the “Alaska Omnibus Act”. TERMINATION OF APPLICATION OF CERTAIN FEDERAL LAWS SEC. 3. Any Territorial law, as that term is defined in section 8(d) of the Act of July 7, 1958 (72 Stat. 339, 344), providing for the admission of the State of Alaska into the Union- (a) which provides for the regulation of commerce within Alaska by an agency of the United States, and (b) the application of which to the State of Alaska is continued solely by reason of such section 8(d), shall cease to apply to the State of Alaska on June 30, 1961, or on the effective date of any law enacted by the Legislature of the State of Alaska which modifies or changes such Territorial law, whichever occurs first.
How about ignoring all federal laws that fail to name Arizona as a geographical place where the law is supposed to have effect?
I downloaded Obamacare and starting searching for state names. California appears 11 times, and Arizona, Missouri, and Texas don't appear at all. 4 USC 72 All offices attached to the seat of government shall be exercised in the District of Columbia, and not elsewhere, except as otherwise expressly provided by law.
