Article I, Section 8, Clause 3 of the United States Constitution, the "Commerce Clause," gives Congress the exclusive power to "regulate Commerce…among the several States." As shorthand, we often speak of "interstate commerce," meaning commerce that crosses state lines. Congress' power to regulate interstate commerce has been interpreted broadly to include articles in commerce, the channels of commerce, things that affect interstate commerce, and even wholly intrastate activities that, when aggregated, may have an impact on interstate commerce or national markets. (See also "Commerce Clause").
The exchange of goods and/or services across state lines. It provides a basis for congressional and federal government agency regulation of wages and hours of work and other employ- ment-related matters.
The power to regulate the flow of goods across state or national boundaries was awarded to Congress in Article I, Section 8, Clause 3 of the U.S. Constitution and became the legal foundation for many federal programs during and after the New Deal. At various times federal action has been nullified because the commerce in question was intra state or because the activity being regulated was deemed to be noncommercial in nature. See U.S. v. E.E. Knight Co. (1895).

Interstate commerce is trade between states (Intrastate commerce is trade within a state.). The Constitution empowers Congress to regulate interstate commerce, and, in "Gibbons v. Ogden" in 1824, the Supreme Court ruled that a state government can regulate intrastate commerce, but not when the transaction involves crossing a state line.
