1. There need to be stiff

penalties for not abiding by the laws AND jurisdiction as to whom will be the enforcement agency... should be headed at the federal level and enforcement responsibilities should be universal across all agencies. anything less is inadequate at best and a sham at any level.

A law can't be uniformly in force unless it's federally administered... just look at the recent split decisions made by the SCOTUS which casts the decisions back to lower court districts which means those laws/decisions are not in force universally throughout the nation, only in the circuit court district where the last decision (which was appealed) ends up standing as the law in that district only. The input of the SCOTUS is required to make the ruling universally in force.
