Even though over a hundred years have passed, issues surrounding the power the federal government has over a state government has not changed much. If you type in the word nullification into a search engine there are numerous files that pop up. Many of these files show that even now in the 21st century, we are dealing with disputes where the federal government is trying to strong hold a situation that the state feels they have no right in. States are not powerless in the face of the federal law but there are limits on what they can do to prevent enforcement of the constitution. This will be an on going battle since neither the federal or state government feel that they are over stepping their boundaries.
