What does the Tenth Amendment state?

Rights not mentioned in the Constitution belong to the states
Powers not delegated to the federal government are reserved to the states
Establishment of the legislative branch
Freedom of speech and religion

The correct answer is: Powers not delegated to the federal government are reserved to the states

The Tenth Amendment states that any powers not specifically given to the federal government by the Constitution are reserved for the states or for the people. This means that the federal government only has the powers listed in the Constitution, while the states have the power to make laws on any other issues. Option A is incorrect because it only refers to rights, not powers. Option C is incorrect because it refers to a specific branch of government, not the division of powers between state and federal governments. Option D is incorrect because it refers to specific rights protected under the First Amendment, but does not address the issue of state vs federal powers.
