hey dear ur answer is here:-
Federalism is the separation of power between a more local government (in the United States these are the States) and an overarching government (the federal government). In the United States, the issue of federalism is brought up quite a lot. This is due to the Constitution.
In the Constitution, there is the 10th amendment. This amendment gives any power not given to the federal government to the states or the people. This often comes into conflict with the supremacy clause found in Article Six. This clause has been interpreted to mean that Federal law is higher than state law.
The reason it’s important is politics. At the very core, liberals believe the Federal government should deal with things more often and conservatives believe it is most often the job of the states.
This means that when liberals (or conservatives I suppose) want to do something (think healthcare or education, both things not an enumerated power) a conflict occurs.
A modern day example of this is the marijuana debate. Many states have legalized it, even though it is illegal under federal law. Obama’s administration eased up on the enforcing of this law and Trump’s is now cracking down on it.
hope it helps
