reserved powers
Federalism means that power is divided between the national government and the state governments. Federalism limits the power of government because it gives some powers to the national government and some to the states. In creating a federal system, the Constitution set out three types of powers: delegated, reserved, and concurrent. Delegated Powers Delegated powers belong to the national government. Under the Constitution, only the national government has the power to: • coin and print money • set up a postal system • declare war • regulate Immigration • make treaties with foreign countries
The system of federalism balances the power of states and the national government because it gives greater powers to the national government so that our nation did not turn out as a confederacy but it also keeps certain reserved powers for the states that can be denied or taken away by the national government. Not to mention the fact that our states are involved in national politics as well as their own and thereby or national government cannot make all the decisions for the country and the states without our (the people) approval.
reserved power
Found in the Tenth Amendment, it gives states powers not delegated to the national government
Article 1 Section 8 of the Constitution gives the federal government 18 "enumerated powers" of the Congress. The 9th and 10th Amendments restrict the congress to ONLY those functions, and reserve all other powers to the states or to the People.
Examples of the use of federalism to limit power is in politics and government. In our government there are three branches or parts. Each of the branches have a purpose, but can check and balance each other's powers. These examples are the use of federalism to limit power.
