Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The interstate compact clause allows states to make agreements or compacts with one another, with Congress's approval, to address issues that affect multiple states. This clause provides a useful tool for settling disputes between two or more states. It does not permit the national government to impose solutions on states or settle disputes between local governments within a state. It also does not address situations not covered in the Tenth Amendment, which reserves powers not delegated to the national government to the states or the people.
