The framers of the U.S. Constitution ensured state government authority by establishing a federal system that divided powers between the national and state governments. They outlined specific powers for the federal government while reserving others for the states, as seen in the Tenth Amendment. This balance was intended to protect states' rights and allow local governance to address regional needs. Additionally, mechanisms like the interstate commerce clause and the supremacy clause were included to manage conflicts between state and Federal Laws.
