What do you mean right? As long as states have military and police, they have the power to decide who crosses the borders. And power is what matters.
Interstate travel is guaranteed in the constitution.
Nowhere in the constitution of 1814 does it say that.
I think they are asking "SHOULD states have a right to regulate immigration?" which is a much more complicated question to answer.
I honestly dont think it makes much sense to think with this concept of rights. If they have the power and the will, who is going to stop them?
