You could stage the filtered table 1 data to another table. The contents of this staging table are your view 1, and then you build view 2 via a join of the staging table and table 2. This way the proccessing for filtering table 1 is done once and reused for both views.

Really what it boils down to is that view 2 has no idea what kind of filtering you performed in view 1, unless you tell view 2 the filtering criteria, or make it somehow dependent on the results of view 1, which means emulating the same filtering that occurs on view1.

Constraints don't perform any kind of filtering, they only prevent invalid data, or cascade key changes and deletes.
