19 U.S.C. § 2533
State and private standards-related activities
It is the sense of the Congress that no State agency and no private person should engage in any standards-related activity that creates unnecessary obstacles to the foreign commerce of the United States.
The President shall take such reasonable measures as may be available to promote the observance by State agencies and private persons, in carrying out standards-related activities, of requirements equivalent to those imposed on Federal agencies under section 2532 of this title, and of procedures that provide for notification, participation, and publication with respect to such activities.

Trojan Tech., Inc. v. Pennsylvania, 916 F.2d 903 (3d Cir. 1990). “§ 403, codified at 19 U.S.C. § 2533 . We think it unlikely that a “sense of Congress” is sufficient to preempt a state statute establishing a standards-related barrier; 9 it certainly is insufficient to preempt other types of trade restrictions.”
