In this essay you will explore a policy area and how the state and federal governments work with one another. First, identify and describe a policy area in which state and federal authorities share power. Second, explain the benefits and costs associated with the involvement of each (for example, the national government is equipped to fund large programs while states are capable of crafting individualized solutions). Finally, the textbook makes the claim that when state and federal interests collide on a states’ rights debate, the federal government decides who wins. Explain why this is the case.
