Congress cannot pass laws that favor one state over another. The goal of Congress is to pass fair and lawful laws.
Favor any state over another with its laws.
The Constitution says that laws passed by Congress are supplemental to State Laws. Both State and Federal Laws are to be upheld by all United States citizens.

The U.S. Congress passes bills that become Federal Laws when the U.S. President signs them (although there are cases in which Congress can make a bill into a law without the President's approval), and each state Congress passes bills that become state laws when the Governor of the state signs them.
The Supremacy Clause states that the laws Congress make outweigh over all state laws.Hope this helped! :)
A lot of things. Our check and balance system shares various duties between the Legislative, Executive and Judicial branches. e.g. only Congress can declare war, how ever once declared the Executive is responsible for carry it out. Only the Supreme Court can pass judgement (for Constitutionality) on federal law. The Executive proposes a budget, but only Congress can fund it.(Interpret the Constitution in a court case.)(tax exports)We see more and more "overlapping" these days. Congress wants to make foreign policy, however it's the Executive branch who actually has that duty. Thanks to "The commerce clause" in the Constitution some federal judges feel they have say over EVERYTHING, not just federal law, but they do NOT.Hope that helps
