You would sacrifice the Tenth Amendment for the Second?
Note that such a ploy could backfire. It could reverse 521 U.S. 898,
about which Wikipedia says:
In 1997, the Court again ruled that the Brady Handgun Violence
Prevention Act violated the Tenth Amendment (Printz v. United States,
521 U.S. 898 (1997)). The act required state and local law
enforcement officials to conduct background checks on persons
attempting to purchase handguns. Justice Antonin Scalia, writing for
the majority, applied New York v. United States to show that the law
violated the Tenth Amendment. Since the act "forced participation of
the State's executive in the actual administration of a federal
program", it was unconstitutional.
