FAQ
The Framers intended the Tenth Amendment to confirm that the federal government was a limited government of enumerated powers. Any powers the Constitution does not delegate to the federal government are reserved for state and local governments.
Lopez argues that section 922(q) exceeds Congress' delegated powers and violates the Tenth Amendment. The government counters that section 922(q) is a permissible exercise of Congress' power under the Commerce Clause.
Article I, Section 8, Clause 3: The Congress shall have Power . . . To regulate Commerce with foreign Nations, and among the several States, and with the Indian Tribes; . . .
The issue in this case is whether the Commerce Clause authorizes Congress to enact a statute that makes it a crime to possess a gun in, or near, a school. . . . In my view, the statute falls well within the scope of the commerce power as this Court has understood that power over the last half century. . . .
Gun possession is not an economic activity that has any impact on interstate commerce, whether direct or indirect, so the federal government cannot base a law prohibiting gun possession near schools on the Commerce Clause.
