The Constitution of the United States of America explicitly confers to the member states any and all powers that are not explicitly reserved by it to the federal government. Article I Section 8 lists the powers reserved by the federal government, so any other power that is not listed there and is not otherwise prohibited by the Amendments belongs to the states or to the people.
According to the US Constitution, the states in the US have a great deal of power. This is because the Constitution reads that all powers not alloted to the Federal government are powers that the states have.It should be mentioned however, that any state law must be "constitutional".
Any and all powers not specifically given to the federal government are reserved for the people and the states.
Enumerated Powers are those delegated to the federal government by the Constitution. Unenumerated powers are those not stated in the Constitution, and reserved powers are those protected by the 9th and 10th amendments but which are not listed in the Constitution specifically.So Enumerated Powers is the answer you want.
There are many powers not given to the Federal government in the Constitution. Specifically it states that any power not specifically granted to the government will be reserved for the States (interpreted as for the people).
