Concurrent Powers Information

Concurrent powers are those powers in nations with a federal system of government that are shared by both the State and the federal government. They may be exercised simultaneously within the same territory and in relation to the same body of citizens. They are contrasted with reserved powers. Examples of the concurrent powers enjoyed by both the federal and State governments are: the power to tax, build roads, establish bankruptcy laws, and create lower courts.[1]
