Division of power, or division of powers, is the name of the principle that governmental power in the United States of America be divided among the Federal , State, and Local governments. Specifically, Article IV of the Constitution of the United States of America specifies how the power of the several states relates to one another, and to the Federal government.

The Tenth Amendment to the Constitution of the United States of America allows the well established roles of the various state governments to continue except in areas where the Constitution grants sole power to the Federal government.
