The tenth amendment reserves powers to the state. This power is known as federalism. The amendment provides that powers not granted to the federal government by the Constitution, nor prohibited to the States, are reserved to the States or the people.

The Tenth Amendment reserves police power for state and local governments, these governments must adhere to the principals of the Constitution and the Bill of Rights as well as to federal and state statutes.

state police power comes from the Tenth Amendment to the Constitution, which gives states the rights and powers "not delegated to the UnitedStates." States are thus granted the power to establish and enforce laws protecting the welfare, safety, and health of the public.

Anything that reserves power to the states would be the 10th amendment.

Hope this helps :)
