Question

Given what you know about the creation of the Constitution, why was the Tenth Amendment important?

Answer 1

Hi!

I have the answer you're looking for. I just went over this in History.

The Tenth Amendment was added to the Constitution of 1787 largely because of the intellectual influence and personal persistence of the Anti-Federalists and their allies. It's quite clear that the Tenth Amendment was written to emphasize the limited nature of the powers delegated to the federal government.

Hope this helps!
