The United States Constitution is a guideline for our national government. It estabishes the powers and limits of the three branches of government. All the states in the United States create their own constitution to fit their situation, location, etc. The 10th Amendment to the United States Constitution reserves those powers that are not delegated to the US government by the Constitution, nor prohibied by it, to the states themselves, and to the people living in those states.
