Are constitutional and federal laws the same thing
Constitutional laws and federal laws are not the same thing:
- Constitutional laws are derived from the U.S. Constitution, which is the supreme law of the land. They establish the framework for government and protect individual rights.

- Federal laws are statutes enacted by Congress. They apply nationwide and cover various issues like taxes, labor, and the environment.
