What Role Does the Supremacy Clause Play in Federalism and State Governance?

The Supremacy Clause can make things tricky when it comes to how the national and state governments work together. It causes some problems between the laws set by the national government and those made by the states.

Challenges:

  • Sometimes states create laws that clash with national laws.
  • This can make state leaders feel disrespected and they might not want to follow national rules.

Potential Solutions:

  • It's really important for state and national leaders to talk to each other clearly and often.
  • Working together, or cooperative federalism, can help solve disagreements and encourage teamwork.

Even though there are problems with the Supremacy Clause, it reminds us how important it is for everyone to talk and find common ground in governance.
