Notes #6a, Title: “Constitution Notes”
5) Federalism in the Constitution: FEDERAL gov can ONLY do what
the Constitution says. Make laws on very specific list of things.
STATE government can do (make laws on) ANYTHING except when forbidden by the US Constitution.
Parenting Analogy: FED: You can only go to the library.STATE: You can go anywhere
except the bar.

Interstate Commerce Clause (ICC): Article 1, Section 8, Clause 3: Initially passed to prevent interstate trade conflicts, courts have allowed Congress to use it to pass MANY laws with a loose connection to economic activity.
NPC Review: NPC by itself has NO power. Congress has to prove the new law is connected to 1-17 like 3 (ICC), then the NPC lets them make it.
