Depends upon how you look at it.
Each state has the final say of what the legal drinking age is in their state. But the US government years ago told each of the states in the union that if they didn't raise their drinking age to 21 they would lose federal highway funding. Since states kinda need that money, most every state complied with the 21 drinking age thing.
But it is up to each state.
