Thanks for jumping in this thread.
I'll agree with this:

But, I do believe lawsuits and/or criminal charges (3 states) will be coming soon, as the resources they have available to them are far greater than the private lawsuits you were referring to.

I do have an idea of rates, of course. However, I don't think it's in the billions or 100s of milllions to file a pre-enforcement challenge. I mean really, how much time is involved in filing an initial brief or motion?
And since you asked, in regards to how much attorney's charge, yeah, I think most attorneys charge outrageous fees and I think this system is designed to work in their favor (for the most part). No disrespect, I have no idea how much you charge and my comment is based on my own experiences. But, that's another topic in itself and I can go on and on about it.
Anyway, I'm curious if and/or how this may affect other constitutional rights at some point. Feel free to give some input if you'd like. Appreciate it.
Edit (Added)
Perhaps my original example was not the best, as those companies are clearly well funded. However, it's important to mention that there are numerous cases where businesses or individuals (not so well funded) file lawsuits challenging a law based on alleged violations.
