There are no powers "listed" under state government authority. State governments have authority over everything not designated as authority of the federal government.
The 10th Amendment to the United States Constitution defines the relationship between the federal government and state governments by stating that powers not delegated to the federal government are reserved for the states or the people.
In the American political system, the hierarchy of government is designed so that state governments are thought of as parent governments of the local jurisdictions. As such, they can make laws that apply to local government.
Presidential governments have a separation of powers between the executive and legislative branches, with the president serving as the head of state and government. In contrast, parliamentary governments have a fusion of powers, with the executive branch being drawn from the legislative branch. This impacts the functioning of each system as presidential governments can lead to more checks and balances, while parliamentary governments can result in more efficient decision-making and accountability.
Federalism is the constitutional system that divides power between the national and state government. In the USA, the National Government has reserved rights that only it can perform, such as printing money. The State and National Governments can share rights, such as the right to tax citizens. This system is used so that the National Government isn't too powerful and the people can have some control.
State and local governments are organized with a separation of powers similar to the federal government. They have executive, legislative, and judicial branches that handle different functions. The executive branch is led by a governor or mayor, the legislative branch makes laws through a state legislature or city council, and the judicial branch interprets laws through state and local courts. Each level of government has its own responsibilities and authority within their respective jurisdictions.
State governments have some powers that the federal government does not have.
They are powers only for state governments.
State governments have powers in areas such as education, public health, transportation, and intrastate commerce. They also have the authority to regulate land use, conduct state elections, and establish local governments. These powers are outlined in the Tenth Amendment to the US Constitution, which reserves all powers not specifically granted to the federal government to the states.
