I don't know American State and Federal Laws all that well, but isn't this something that sits at the State level?

Or wouldn't this be something that would be bought in by the supreme courts and not congress?

I'm not trying to be a smart arse here, but if States are legislating it out as a legal defense option, why would the Federal Level be required to legislate it?
