(01.06 HC)Rоscоe Filburn, аn Ohiо fаrmer, grew wheаt for personal consumption and to feed his livestock, exceeding the production quota set by the Agricultural Adjustment Act of 1938. Filburn argued that his actions were beyond Congress's power to regulate interstate commerce since the wheat was not sold and remained within state borders. However, the Court unanimously ruled against Filburn, holding that even purely local activities could be regulated if they had a substantial economic effect on interstate commerce when aggregated with similar actions by others.The Court reasoned that Filburn's wheat production, though small, still affected the national wheat market by reducing demand for commercially sold wheat. The Court's ruling established the "aggregation principle," which states that Congress can regulate trivial individual actions that, when combined, substantially impact interstate commerce. This landmark case laid the foundation for increased federal regulation in various areas, including civil rights, environmental protection, and labor laws, and remains a crucial precedent in constitutional law debates over the limits of federal power.Identify a constitutional clause that is common to Wickard v. Filburn (1942) and U.S. v. Lopez (1995).Based on the constitutional clause identified in part A, explain why the facts of U.S. v. Lopez led to a different outcome from the holding in Wickard v. Filburn.Explain how the holding in Wickard v. Filburn affected the balance of power between the states and the national government.
