I do not know if that is entirely true. I think the NF can take away from a state their possible representation on regional committees in a particular sport. Not to say that has been done to states that adopt some individual rules. I do not have a specific example of this, but this is what I have heard. I am too lazy to do the research. I do know that any state can be more restrictive on a particular rule. That was told to me by someone on another sport NF Committee.
