Taxes too. I have a relative who works as an auditor for the California Department of Revenue. Her job is to go into business in other states and determine if they are paying sufficient CA sales tax on their business.

No such department exists in California state government. Major state-level tax bodies in California are the Board of Equalization, the Franchise Tax Board, and the Department of Tax and Fee Administration. Sales and Use Tax is handled by the last.
If they can reach there, legally, it is, by definition, their jurisdiction, whether or not it is their territory, but, in any case, this is about regulation of work within the clearcut territorial boundaries of the state, so there isn't any reaching outside going on. There is a foreign business reaching inside and getting upset that when doing so what they do in that context becomes subject to the laws of the jurisdiction they voluntarily reach into in order to exploit business opportunities available there.
