Q

Federalism–what is it and how does it apply to Section 218?

A

The heart of this question goes to power and authority to act as a government, which is termed sovereignty. As a republic, the United States is a federalist form of government in which sovereignty is divided between a central authority and member state authorities. The citizens and the States granted authority to this central authority now known as the federal government. To make federalism work, the U.S. Constitution imposes certain restraints on the national and State governments. For example, States are prohibited from making treaties with foreign governments. The national government, in turn, is required by the Constitution to refrain from exercising its powers, especially its powers to tax and to regulate interstate commerce, in such a way as to interfere substantially with the ability of the states to perform their responsibilities. The 10th Amendment of the U.S. Constitution reinforces this tenant by stating that the powers not granted by the Constitution to the federal government are reserved to the states or the people.

This understanding of sovereignty and federalism was the reason that Congress did not include State and local government employers and employees in the original Social Security Act of 1935. To overcome this problem, Section 218 of the Social Security Act was enacted that allowed the States and their political subdivisions, through their States, to enter into voluntary agreements with the federal government (SSA) to provide coverage and benefits to their employees.

143
Q

Why doesn’t the Section 218 Agreement that governs voluntary Social Security and Medicare-only coverage of State and local government employees have to be changed when federal laws are amended?

A

According to the United States Constitution (Article VI), federal laws have supremacy over all laws adopted by the States. Any changes in federal law automatically change the requirements imposed on the states and local governments throughout the United States.
