States." In the 1930s, the Court added a third and extremely broad category, holding
that Congress could regulate commerce occurring so long as the commercial activity
had "any appreciable effect" on interstate or foreign commerce
What limits the power of the states to regulate commerce? - Answer-Preemption,
discrimination against interstate commerce, and unduly burdening interstate commerce
, When does a federal regulation preempt a state commerce regulation? - Answer-If a
particular governmental power is exclusively federal; may be express or implied, or it
may result from a direct conflict between state and federal law
What is the supremacy clause? - Answer-If the constitution gives a power to the federal
government, the federal government also has the authority to prohibit the states from
excersing a similar problem.
What is express preemption? - Answer-1. Supremacy Clause found in the Constitution
makes federal law the "supreme law of the land."
2. Congress can engage in express preemption by specifying in the legislation that the
states have no power to adopt similar laws.
Does Congress exercise the law of preemption? - Answer-Generally no; when passing
a law, Congress often provides expressly that states retain the power to adopt similar or
related laws so long as those laws do not conflict with or hinder the objectives of the
federal law
What two conditions must be met to prove implied preemption? - Answer-Two
conditions must be met to prove implied preemption:
First it must be shown that the federal regulation is relatively comprehensive; In other
words, the court must be convinced that Congress attempted to impose a fairly
complete regulatory structure on this type of activity.
Second, it must be shown that there is a very strong need for a uniform national
regulatory policy in this area, so that individual state laws of this type are likely to
interfere with the objectives of the federal regulatory effort

impossible to comply with both the state and federal laws or if the state law substantially
interferes with the purpose of the federal law
What constitutes discrimination against interstate commerce? - Answer-Involves a
question of intent. States may not shelter their own industries from competition

their own natural resources, but cannot do so by discriminating against out-of-state
buyers. They also cannot require that business operations that could be conducted
more efficiently elsewhere take place within the state
When is a state unduly burdening interstate commerce? - Answer-No intent necessary,
only impact.
The court balances the local interest being furthered by the state law against the degree
of burden it places on interstate commerce.
What is often impacted by the 'unduly burdening interstate commerce' clause? How can
this be circumvented? - Answer-Taxes; a tax must be applied only to subjects that have
substantial connection with the taxing jurisdiction, must be reasonably related to
