The Control of Commerce

One of the first and most significant attempts by the United States government to control commerce within and between the states was Article I, Section 8, Clause 3 of the United States Constitution, more commonly known as the "commerce clause." This clause states that the United States Congress has the power to "[t]o regulate Commerce with foreign Nations, and among the several States, and with the Indian Tribes." Notably, however, the federal government does not have the power to interfere in matters that are purely state matters. Thus, there has been considerable dispute over the reach of the commerce clause to matters that occur entirely within the confines of a single state. In many cases, the federal government has argued that it can regulate such matters
