Supreme Court cases have shaped the constitutional relationship between the national government and the state governments. This is a power that is granted to the Supreme Court in the Constitution. These decisions have influenced the balance of power between the national government and the state governments.
In 1803, in the case of Marbury v Madison, the Supreme Court ruled that the Constitution is the supreme law of the land. The ruling also gave the courts the power of judicial review, which is used to determine if a law is constitutional.
In 1819, in the case of McCulloch v Maryland, the Supreme Court ruled that a loose view of the Constitution is acceptable. This increased the power of the federal government by allowing the federal government to do things that were not specifically mentioned in the Constitution.
There were a few other rulings that increased the power of the national government. In 1824, in the case of Gibbons v Ogden, the Supreme Court ruled that the federal government is responsible for controlling interstate trade. In 1937, in the case of National Labor Relations Board v Jones and Laughlin Steel Corp., the Supreme Court ruled that the federal government could regulate products within a national marketplace.
Various Supreme Court rulings have increased the power of the federal government.
