Who holds the power: the federal government or the individual states?
In short: This video explores the Tenth Amendment, a fundamental pillar of US civics that defines the boundary between federal authority and state sovereignty.
The Tenth Amendment establishes that any powers not specifically delegated to the United States by the Constitution, and not prohibited to the States by it, are reserved for the States or the people. This video features a discussion between Kim Kutz Elliott and scholars Randy Barnett and Robert Schapiro to examine the implications of this constitutional principle.
