Governor Brewer signed the "Support our Law Enforcement and Safe Neighborhoods Act" which prevented illegal immigrants from being in Arizona without carrying registration documents. Almost immediately, political outrage arose, and the case was taken to the Supreme Court, which then overruled the law. This has to do with Federalism because Federalism has to do with how the power comes from both the states and the government, and at that moment, the states did not have the power to throw out illegal immigrants in Arizona and they were trying to change that.

Separation of Powers: Obama's Unconstitutional Recess Appointments (2014)

# data[].attributes.body
Presidential appointees need Senate approval. However, if the Senate is in recess, sometimes the president can make a "recess appointment" as a way to get around Senate approval. In 2014, President Obama tried to make a recess appointment to the National Labor Relations Board, even though the Senate was technically still in session. The Supreme Court struck down the appointment because the Senate was not in recess. In this example, President Obama tried to expand his own powers in trying to make an appointment without Senate approval, but this did not work and the Supreme Court would not let him do it.

Limited Government: Corwin Amendment (1861)

# data[].attributes.body
In the early days of the country when slavery was still happening, the south really did not want congress to limit slavery and liked the idea of congress abolishing slavery even less. So they decided to try and pass an amendment preventing congress from ever putting any  restrictions on slavery/abolishing it. This would have affected Limited Government because it would have limited congress from passing a legal action against slavery. Of course, the north did not like this idea and it was not passed.

The Ludlow Law would  have made a declaration of war up to the popular vote, taking that power away from the federal government and giving it to the people to vote on. In addition to this, whoever voted yes to war would automatically be enlisted in the army. This would have affected the Popular Sovereignty because part of that is being able to vote, and this deals with voting for a certain matter. However,  the Ludlow Law failed to be passed.

The states and the federal government have been conflicted for some time about whether to legalize marijuana or not. Currently, the federal government has marijuana legalized but has told the states that they can make their own laws about legalized marijuana, and the federal government won't regulate their own laws - for now. 26 states then legalized marijuana in some way.

In this case, Filburn, a wheat farmer, was told how much wheat he could produce in total to use for interstate commerce but he produced much more for his own use (such as food for his livestock). Filburn argued that as long as he wasn't selling it, the government couldn't tell him how much to produce, but the Supreme Court found that under the Commerce Clause, yes, they could.

Women had been protesting in the Suffrage Movement for a long time before Amendment #19 was finally passed, allowing women to vote. Part of popular sovereignty is the citizens being able to vote for elected officials, and women were being denied that - which is also a constitutional right! Finally, this amendment was passed, allowing women to vote as well.
