A federal mandate is an order from the central government that all state and local government must comply with. Usually, a federal mandate requires state and local governments to improve environmental or civil rights issues. Hundreds of federal mandates have been passed requiring state and local governments to take action in areas ranging from the way voters are registered, to ocean-dumping restrictions, to the education of disabled people. Some examples of federal mandates include the Head Start program for low-income children, the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA).
