Intergovernmental relationships serve as the framework of cooperation between local, state, and federal agencies, which all have different limitations of power imposed by the U.S. Constitution. The division of power allows each state to have its own identity, providing citizens with the opportunity to enjoy organized diversity. However, during difficult times, these agencies may shift their priorities and funding to work together to solve complicated problems (e.g., strategies to combat unemployment, developing and enforcing laws, tax collection, or police reform).
