19 19 The U.S. Constitution provides that the Constitution, and the Laws of the United States which shall be made in pursuance thereof; and all Treaties made, or which shall be made, under the Authority of the United States, shall be the supreme Law of the Land; and the Judges in every State shall be bound thereby, anything in the Constitution or Laws of any State to the Contrary notwithstanding. U.S. CONST. art.VI.
20 20 Of course, state and federal laws may be different without direct conflict. Generally, states may pass more restrictive or stringent food safety laws (or weaker laws) than those promulgated at the federal level, so long as there is no direct conflict in the specifics of the laws.
21 21 “The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively or to the people.” U.S. CONST. amend. X.
22 22 Article I of the Constitution authorizes Congress to make all laws which shall be necessary and proper for carrying into execution the government's constitutional powers. The “Commerce Clause,” in article I, section 8, clause 3 of the Constitution, authorizes Congress to regulate commerce with foreign nations, among the several States and with the Indian tribes.
23 23 “The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively or to the people.” U.S. CONST. amend. X.
