Supremacy clause

The supremacy clause in the constitutions states that federal law takes precedent over state law. Article VI, Paragraph 2 of the U.S. Constitution is commonly referred to as the Supremacy Clause.  It establishes that the federal constitution, and federal law generally, take precedence over state laws, and even state constitutions. It prohibits states from interfering with the federal government's exercise of its constitutional powers, and from assuming any functions that are exclusively entrusted to the federal government. This law was tested in Little Rock, AK in the integration of Central High School. The Supreme Court in 1954 in the case of Brown vs The Board of Education ruled that schools must integrate. Three years later this had not happened so under the concept of justice delayed is justice denied the federal government sent in troops to escort black students into the school. We are now faced with a similar situation regarding federal immigration laws. California has allowed illegals to cross the border and has helped them to avoid capture. The federal government must now take steps to ensure that federal laws are obeyed.
