I don't understand the premise of the question. Why would Louisiana expect to be able to dictate federal policies against the wishes of other states?

They would expect other states to not be able to dictate things against them, not necessarily them against other states. This is looking increasingly likely as political opinion on immigration, gun control, abortion, etc continues to divide further left and right.
