Detailed explanation-1: -The U.S. Supreme Court case Gibbons v. Ogden established the principle that states cannot pass laws that interfere with the power of Congress to regulate interstate commerce. It thus significantly strengthened federal power. The case was decided on March 2, 1824.
Detailed explanation-2: -In this decision, Chief Justice John Marshall’s Court ruled that Congress has the power to “regulate commerce” and that federal law takes precedence over state laws.
Detailed explanation-3: -In Gibbons v. Ogden, the Supreme Court ruled that: states could not restrict trade within their jurisdictions. Under the constitution, congress has the power to make all laws which shall be necessary and proper for carrying into executions the foregoing powers.
