Question

In at least one hundred and fifty words, state your opinion on the relationship between the federal government and state’s rights. Do you believe that powers are shared, or does one party have more power than the other?

Answer 1

almost 200 years, the federal-state relationship has shifted more and more toward national supremacy. But some observers today believe that over the past twenty years, the balance of power is beginning to tilt back toward the states. Presidents Richard Nixon, Ronald Reagan, and George Bush tried to slow down the growth of the national government under the banner

Answer 2

The relationship between Federal and States government has changed a lot. We can say that the relationship began with more states' power and right now it lays more toward national supremacy. Before the 1930s, the roles of the Federal and State governments were very much separated and each government dominated its sphere. But after the Great Depression with the New Deal, many federal programs needed state support but demanded a national government that was more dominant.

Some historians see that nowadays there is new federalism, but I believe that states still have a big autonomy which prevents the national government from altering the beliefs and cultures of the state, such as with the immigration crisis.
