The purpose of the 10th amendment was to secure the rights of the states from a large national government.
It says that any power not delegated (given) to the national government nor prohibited by it to the states (article 1 section 10) is given to the states or the people.
This prohibited the federal government from gaining too much power, and giving all issues not given to the federal government to the states
