A Parallel and Dual System

The U.S. Constitution establishes a government based on "federalism," or the sharing of power between the national, and state (and local) governments.

While each of the 50 states has its own constitution and laws, all provisions of state constitutions and laws must comply with the U.S. Constitution and federal laws.

Under the U.S. Constitution, both the national and state governments are granted certain exclusive powers and share other powers.

constitution. The Minnesota Constitution can be amended by:

The legislature proposes a

constitutional amendment that

appears on the MN ballot and is put to

vote before citizens of Minnesota.

The legislature can ask voters to

call for a constitutional convention.

Amendments
