Garcia v. San Antonio Metro. Transit Auth.
Court
Citation 469 U.S. 528 (1985)
Date decided 1985
Overturned National League of Cities v. Usery

Issues

Whether it is possible for the court to determine if a particular government function is integral and whether this test is faithful to the roles of federalism.

Holding

Rule

The court rejects as unsound in principle and unworkable in practice a rule of state immunity from federal regulation that turns on a judicial appraisal of whether a particular governmental function is “integral” or “traditional”.
