<em>South Dakota vs Dole</em> is probably useful here (upholding the constitutionality of conditioning Federal highway funding on the state's legal drinking age, an area of authority traditionally reserved to states)

Yes, the Medicaid part of the Obamacare ruling did undermine this, although the way it did it could easily be circumvented with the meaningless formalism of repeal & replace vs modify (which is why that part of the ruling was fucking stupid). So, repeal and replace Federal grants to states for law enforcement with something conditioned on an insurance requirement.
