“The rationale behind the Garmon preemption doctrine derives from the Supremacy Clause of the United States Constitution. U.S. Const, art. VI, cl. 2; Smith v. Nat’l Steel & Shipbuilding Co., 125 F.3d 751 , 755 (9th Cir.1997); Britt v. Grocers Supply Co., 978 F.2d 1441, 1445-46 (5th Cir.1992). “Garmon and its progeny [were] primarily concerned with the conflict between federal labor policy and state laws.” Smith, 125 F.3d at 755.”
