CHAPTER 12 – STATE GOVERNMENTS
Under the “Federal System”: • The National Gov’t has powers…. (Expressed)• The State Gov’t has powers…(Reserved)• And They also have some powers at the same
time (Concurrent)
![Page 19: Hi! I Live In Pa](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042513/54b3313a4a79594c288b4769/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
What is an example of a concurrent power?
• I’ll tell you abut the worst one…..
• TAXES – each paycheck we get – the federal government will take out taxes to help fund their government….and the State will take out taxes to help pay for their government….
![Page 20: Hi! I Live In Pa](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042513/54b3313a4a79594c288b4769/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
The Structure is a little different…..
But VERY Similar…..

Jurisdiction
• Now we should probably better undertsand the jurisdiction portion of Chapter 8…..
• The Federal Judicial Branch only looks at certain cases – the State Judicial system interprets all other laws…
