- Abstract: This article examines four decisions of the US Supreme Court rendered in the period 2011-2013 under the leadership of Chief Justice John Roberts relating to the issue of US federalism. While it is too soon to offer a definitive appraisal of the Court's federalism jurisprudence, these decisions suggest that the Court will continue, if not deepen, the narrowing construction of federal power favoured by its predecessor, the Rehnquist Court. Indeed, it seems fair to say that the Roberts Court is developing a federalism jurisprudence which seeks not only to limit federal power but to protect the "dignity" of the states as dual sovereigns with the federal government. The four cases considered are: National Federation of Independent Business v. Sibelius, which upheld most of President Obama's health care legislation (but not under the broad power of the Commerce or Necessary and Proper Clauses of the Constitution); Shelby County v. Holder, which struck down key provisions of the Voting Rights Act of 1965 because Congress could not, unless justified by current conditions, impose on some states (which had a history of discrimination in voting) burdens not borne by others;, United States v. Windsor, which ruled Congress could not define marriage to exclude same sex marriages regardless of state law; and Arizona v. United States, which held that the strict Arizona immigration statute was preempted by federal law because the state "may not pursue policies that undermine federal law." [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
- Abstract: Aquest article examina quatre decisions del Tribunal Suprem dels EUA preses durant el període 2011-2013 sota la direcció del president John Roberts en relació amb el federalisme dels EUA. Tot i que és massa aviat per fer avaluació definitiva de la jurisprudència federal del Tribunal, aquestes decisions suggereixen que el Tribunal continuarà, o fins i tot intensificarà, la construcció restrictiva del poder federal afavorida pel seu predecessor, el Tribunal de Rehnquist. En efecte, sembla just dir que el Tribunal de Roberts està desenvolupant una jurisprudència federal que persegueix no sols limitar el poder federal, sinó protegir la «dignitat» dels estats com a sobirans conjuntament amb el govern federal. Els quatre casos considerats són: National Federation of Independent Business contra Sibelius, que ratificava majoritàriament la legislació d'assistència sanitària del president Obama (però no sota el poder ampli de la Clàusula del Comerç i la Clàusula Necessària i Justa de la Constitució); Shelby County contra Holder, que va derogar les provisions clau de la Llei del Dret a Vot de 1965 per tal que el Congrés no pogués imposar, llevat que estigués justificat per condicions vigents, a alguns estats (que tenien una trajectòria de discriminació en el vot) càrregues no suportades per altres; els Estats Units contra Windsor, que va dictaminar que el Congrés no pogués definir el matrimoni de manera que exclogués els matrimonis entre persones del mateix sexe sense tenir en compte les lleis estatals, i Arizona contra els Estats Units, que va considerar que la llei federal tenia prevalença sobre l'estricte estatut d'immigració d'Arizona perquè l'estat «no pot seguir polítiques que minen la llei federal».
