Thanks!

Also, I can't figure out how I am going to do this.


Choose one of the following cases:

McCulloch v. Maryland, Gibbons v. Ogden, or District of Columbia v. Heller.

In at least two well-written paragraphs, explain why the case is important to understanding the changing nature of American federalism.

Answer 17

Gibbons v. Ogden -

Ogden thought that the state’s right to regulate navigation was not part of the federal Commerce Clause while Gibbons thought that the federal government had the right to regulate interstate trade.
The Supreme Court unanimously (6–0) ruled in favor of Gibbons and the federal government. The case was important because it established a precedent for the Congress to override a state law when it conflicts with a federal law. It also extended the definition of commerce to include navigation. States could not pass commerce laws in direct conflict with federal law. The case has an economic impact as well, because the decision allows the federal government some control over trade within and across state borders.
