The "states rights" claim is made by people when they don't like the decisions made at the federal level.
It is a sham that is usually used by Republicans, except when it plays against them, in which case they suddenly become Federalists.
Over most of history the federal government has pushed the envelope on granting equal protection under the law to everyone, which is why the conservatives hate the feds so much and always holler about "states rights".

The supremacy clause, stated by extremely some diverse posters proper here, is the area it consistently happens. The 10th modification is something it extremely is sometimes disregarded, even even with the reality that. The text textile textile of the 10th is "The powers now no longer delegated to u.s. by the style, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the individuals." in actuality, which ability if the powers weren't granted to the federal government by the style, they merely have not have been on condition that ability. in actuality, the accomplished ability conflict is a byproduct of apathy by the individuals.

Would it be better for you if people who live in Utah or New York get to decide how you should live? Or would it be better for your locality to determine whats best for where you live?
What if you didn't like their decision. Where would you be able to move to?

More State Laws please. I don't like the Feds having that much authority. What are you confused about? Life is not that complex.
