Federal laws do trump state laws in most cases, it is settled. This case is due to the fed's noninterference policy, which they chose for themselves, it's not being forced on them because of some Civil War-era debate.
- funstuff007 4y agoThe Feds should never fear interfering with state laws when federal law is in direct opposition. It's the basis of the entire system.
- amanaplanacanal 4y agoThe Feds don’t have the resources to handle local law enforcement, even if they wanted to. I can’t see that this is a way for either party to pick up a bunch of votes, so interest is low.

- AlbertCory 4y ago> It's the basis of the entire system No, it isn't. The Constitution is the basis of the entire system, and it defines the powers of the Federal government. The 10th amendment says: The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the states, are reserved to the states respectively, or to the people.

- shkkmo 4y ago> Federal laws do trump state laws in most cases, it is settled. This simply isn't true. There are areas where federal laws can contravene states laws and areas where they cannot. Additionally, the federal laws often don't "trump" state laws, but supplement them. Generally speaking (there are exceptions), state law enforcement can only enforce state laws.
