In theory Municipal laws cannot override or subvert state or Federal Laws; some states with 'home rule authority' grant municipal corporations the ability to make law without state support. In actual practice however municipalities pass and enforce laws in violation of state or federal laws all the time; most people do not fight it because of the expense involved (a war of attrition).
For example:
- The City of Farmers Branch Texas passed an anti-Immigration ordinance that made it unlawful to rent to illegal immigrants (May 12th 2007); the Federal Court for the Northern District of Texas ruled that the law could not be enforced until the state and federal courts tested it for its constitutional compliance (May 21st 2007).
- Despite a preponderance of State Court rulings, and a split Federal Court ruling; cities still install "Red Light Cameras" even though they are ruled as an Unconstitutional money making scheme.

Are abortions federal municipal or provincial?
In the United States, abortion laws are primarily governed at the state level rather than federal or municipal levels. Each state has the authority to regulate or restrict abortions based on its laws, leading to a patchwork of regulations across the country. Federal law, particularly the Supreme Court's decisions, can influence state laws, but the regulation of abortion itself is predominantly a state matter. In other countries, the level of government that regulates abortion varies, with some having federal regulations and others being governed by provincial or municipal laws.
