Sadly they can't: The universities have been prostituted with federal funds, and federal funds come with federal strings attached.

Also:

The bill would also make those who block highway traffic subject to criminal penalties

No need for a new law. Just charge them with reckless endangerment and send them to prison for a few months.

Codifying a specific offense for such behavior will give law enforcement an additional tool in dealing with such threats to public safety.

Why is it any better? Is walking into traffic not obviously reckless?
