In a recent statute, Congress passed a bill with the following regulations:  Regulation A, which requires all instructors of persons seeking commercial driving licenses to be certified by federal examiners. The regulation details the criteria for certification, which requires a minimum number of years of experience as a commercial driver and a minimum score on a test of basic communication skills.  Regulation B, which requires that every bus in commercial service be equipped with seatbelts for every seat.  Regulation C provides that states failing to implement adequate measures to ensure that bus seatbelts are actually used will forfeit 10 percent of previously-appropriated federal funds that assist states with highway construction.  The State Driving Academy, which is a state agency that offers driving instruction to persons seeking commercial driving licenses, is considering challenging the validity of Regulation A under the United States Constitution. The Capitol City Transit Company, which is a private corporation that operates buses within the city limits of Capitol City, is considering challenging the validity of Regulation B under the United States Constitution. The State Highway Department, another state agency, is considering challenging the validity of Regulation C under the United States Constitution.  Is there state action?
