The Constitution.
Article I Sections 9 and 10 set forth specific limitations on both federal and state governments. Article IV tells the states to place nice with each other, and Article VI (Supremacy Clause) allows the federal government to override individual state laws.
The 10th Amendment (quoted by David above) makes an attempt at reserving power of the states, but is currently interpreted as a truism -- anything not taken by the federal government is left to the states. While that's not what the text says, that's how it works in practice.

The constitution. Any laws not specifically granted to the federal government by the constitution remain the power of the states.
