Inevitable once states began to legalize Federally illegal drugs and become "sanctuary states".
Back when I was still a shitlib with lolbert sympathies in 2014 I remember telling my shitlib friends to expect conservative states to start doing things like try to ban abortion in response to the push to "legalize" marijuana contrary to Federal law. I never would have expected the motivation to be on immigration, because Big Agriculture drew a lot of water on the right and was very much pro-open borders.
Every blue region already has cities defying federal law whenever they refuse to honor an ICE detainer. Like every other conflict in the country, they started it and pretend we did.
No doubt they have some reason why it was justified, like "the Feds were bought out by the big businesses to not apply the law like we wanted/expected!"
Not that it matters: as it is in any long-running blood feud we're all in "will to power" mode now.
