Constitutional Law - Board of Natural Resources v. Brown: New York Grows Roots In Washington
Abstract
In Board of Natural Resources v. Brown, the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals held that provisions in the Forest Resources Conservation and Shortage Relief Act violated the Tenth Amendment by compelling western states to issue regulations according to Congress' instructions. In so doing, the court recognized the ongoing vitality of the Tenth Amendment as a limitation on the power of Congress to use states as instruments of federal regulation.
