NGA – National Governors Association

2018 0227 - (NGA) - National Governors Association to GOV (House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform) - On Federalism Implications of Treating States as Stakeholders - 5p
- Regarding federal preemption, governors recognize the need for federal intervention
  should states fail to act collectively on issues of legitimate concern.
- Preemption of state laws, however, should be the exception rather than the rule.
  - This is especially true in areas of primary state responsibility, including, but not limited to: education, insurance regulation, criminal justice, preservation of the dual banking system, preservation of state securities regulation, and the management of state personnel programs.
