State constitution (United States)

Bol

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Usually, they are longer than the 7,500-word federal Constitution and are more detailed regarding the day-to-day relationships between government and the people; the Vermont Constitution is 8,295 words long, while Alabama's sixth and most recent constitution, ratified in 1901, is 340,136 words long. Both the federal and state constitutions are organic texts: they are the fundamental blueprints for the legal and political organizations of the United States and the states, respectively.The Tenth Amendment to the United States Constitution, part of the Bill of Rights, provides that "The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people." Although states must be in compliance with the federal Constitution and must establish a republican form of government, states have wide latitude to adopt a constitution, which are the fundamental documents of state law.
