Brief Explanations
Each Supreme Court case is matched to its core ruling based on U.S. constitutional law precedents:
- McCulloch v. Maryland (1819) established Congress has implied powers under the Necessary and Proper Clause, and states lack authority to tax federal institutions.
- Gibbons v. Ogden (1824) confirmed federal supremacy in regulating interstate commerce, meaning federal law overrules state law in multi-state matters.
- Worcester v. Georgia (1832) held that only the federal government has the power to regulate relations with Native American nations, barring state interference.
