What is more, the Supreme Court has suggested that the federalism clear-statement rule is of limited applicability when a federal regulatory regime is enforced through a statutory cooperative-federalism framework, as Section 7411(d) is. See AT&T Corp. v. Iowa Util. Board, 525 U.S. 366, 378 n.6 (1999) (noting appeals to States’ rights as “most peculiar” in the context of “a federal program administered by 50 independent state agencies”); see also Alaska Dep’t of Env’t Conservation v. EPA, 540 U.S. 461 (2004) (declining to adopt dissent’s proposed clear-statement rule for federal constraints on state implementation decisions in cooperative-federalism program). See generally Abbe Gluck, Intrastatutory Federalism and Statutory Interpretation: State Implementation of Federal Law in Health Reform and Beyond, 121 YALE L.J. 534, 555–556 (2011).
