There are hardly any aspects of government are that controlled by the states directly. There are certain functions that are delegated to the states through the federal government like healthcare, education, employment and development among others.
Delegated powers are found in the United States Constitution. These powers are specifically granted to the federal government, such as the power to regulate interstate commerce, declare war, and coin money.
Delegated powers are distributed authority in a federal system of government, so any federal system would have delegated powers.
The people within the colonies were tired of the delegated powers being placed on them by the British Parliament. (This is an example of the term delegated powers in a sentence.)
A delegated power is one that is reserved for the federal government, so obviously the national government has delegated powers.
