11 Federalism The Tenth Amendment of the U.S. Constitution.
Read along while I read aloud – The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people. A helpful way to remember that reserved powers are for state governments is to note that the word “reserved” has the letter “s” in it and the word “state” begins with the letter “s”. Lou Frey Institute/Florida Joint Center for Citizenship

12 Federalism The Tenth Amendment was included in the Bill of Rights to further define the balance of power between the federal government and the states. The amendment says that the federal government has only those powers specifically granted by the U.S. Constitution. Some of the powers of the federal government are the power to declare war, collect taxes, and regulate interstate business activities. According to the amendment, any power not listed is left to the states or the people. Although the amendment does not specify what the state powers are, the U.S. Supreme Court has ruled that laws affecting marriage, divorce, adoption, commerce that occurs within a state’s borders, and local law enforcement are among the powers specifically reserved to the states or the people.
