Under the federal system, Virginia possesses the power to enact and enforce laws within its own borders, as long as they do not conflict with Federal Laws. This includes authority over education, transportation, public health, and law enforcement. Additionally, Virginia has the power to levy taxes and regulate commerce within the state. These powers are granted by the Tenth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, which reserves to the states all powers not specifically delegated to the federal government.
