Hunting Season Nys

hypothetical question 1?

the NYS legislative authorized a hunting season for certain migratory birds between Nov and Dec. THe federal gov’t signs an international treaty ratified by the Senate banning the hunting of the seasonal birds. can NY residents hunt these birds in season? explain!

Shooting from the hip here, but I believe the federal law supersedes the state law.

[THE SUPREMACY CLAUSE Article. VI. This Constitution, and the Laws of the United States which shall be made in Pursuance thereof; and all Treaties made, or which shall be made, under the Authority of the United States, shall be the supreme Law of the Land; and the Judges in every State shall be bound thereby, any thing in the Constitution or Laws of any State to the Contrary notwithstanding.]

Any federal law does trump any conflicting state law
Issues like credit reporting and debt collector abuse are researched by millions of consumers each and every day. Commonly, there is confusion as to whether the law to consider is a state or federal law and which one will finally rule. The Supremacy Clause in the Constitution explains that federal law always trumps state law which means federal always wins if there is a conflict between the two. If there is no conflict then the state law will be used but if there is any question or conflict of the two reading as the same, then the federal rule would win.
