“The Constitution does not protect the sovereignty of States for the benefit of States, or state governments as abstract political entities, or even for the benefit of public officials governing the States. To the contrary, the Constitution divides authority between the federal and state governments for the ‘protection’ of individuals.” See: New York v. U.S., 112 S.Ct. 2408, 120 L.Ed.2d 120, 505 U.S. 144.
