The arcane topic of federal preemption has become the stuff of public debate and major news stories The partisan lines are clearly drawn On one side, consumer advocates, plaintiffs' attorneys, and state officials argue that broad federal preemption claims interfere with the states' historic police power to protect their citizens against corporate misconduct On the other side, corporations and federal agencies maintain that preemption is a vital safeguard against unwarranted and inconsistent state interferences with the national economy and against aggressive trial lawyers and attorneys generalFierce struggles along these lines dominate the political debate, judicial decisions, and legal commentary in a wide range of regulatory arenas, from financial regulation to automobile safetyfrom clean air laws to the regulation of telecommunications, energy, and other network industriesfrom securities law to consumer products standardsfrom pharmaceutical
