Why anyone would bring up any other reference is odd. It says very clearly the Constitution is the SUPREME law of the land and that it applies to the States. It has been there since day one.

The supremacy clause only declares that the Constitution and federal law takes precedence over state and local laws when there is a conflict between the laws.
You must also consider the scope and application of sections of the Constitution.
Quote:
Article 1, Section 7, Clause 1
All Bills for raising Revenue shall originate in the House of Representatives

The scope of A1,S7,C1 is clearly the US Congress. It obviously does not apply to "All Bills for raising Revenue" at all levels of government.
