The supreme court recently overturned a law banning sports betting across the 50 states."Congress can regulate sports gambling directly, but if it elects not to do so, each State is free to act on its own. Our job is to interpret the law Congress has enacted and decide whether it is consistent with the Constitution," said Justice Samuel Alito. The law was mainly overturned because it forces states to comply with the federal government, which violates constitutional principles about states' rights.
This connects to the cases in antebellum america that tried to interpret the constitution in court.
