Gibbons v. Ogden (1824)Aaron Ogden held a New York state-granted

monopoly license to ferry people between New York and New Jersey. Competitors, denied similar licenses by New York, secured one from the U.S. Congress. Thomas Gibbons held one such license.

Ogden argued that trafficking passengers was not commerce, and therefore did not conflict with Congress' regulation of commerce between states. The Supreme Court disagreed, ruling that the concept of commerce included navigation and commercial intercourse generally. This essentially expanded the meaning of commerce and asserted Congress' power over it. In fact, this now extends to almost every kind of movement of persons, things, ideas, and communication, for commercial purposes or not, across state lines.
