Expressed concurrent powers and reserved powers both pertain to the distribution of authority within the framework of government. Expressed concurrent powers are those explicitly stated in the Constitution that both the federal and state governments can exercise, such as the power to tax. Reserved powers, on the other hand, are those not explicitly granted to the federal government or prohibited to the states, allowing states to exercise authority in areas like education and local law enforcement. Both types of powers highlight the balance and division of responsibilities between different levels of government.
Reserved powers are assigned to either the federal or local government, but not to both. Concurrent powers are assigned to both the federal and local government, and can be carried out simultaneously or as needed.
What are concurrent, delegated and reserved powers and how do they apply to the relationship between state and federal government?
