Yes, and here in the US, it's called The Interstate Commerce Clause
Same thing, different name.
I've never drawn a parallel between those two things, as I've always thought of the commerce clause as limiting freedoms, whereas I've thought of the Schengen Zone as guaranteeing them. Interested to hear how they're the same thing with a different name.
My guess is you mean that the commerce clause prevents states from prohibiting travel between states?
Essentially, yes. In a nutshell, Commerce clause prohibits states from restricting trade across state lines. This includes travel of any kind as well since the majority of trade is done thru trucking. You can include private citizens in that since trade also includes vacation spots, which is still commerce; i.e. spending/traveling as they go...just like the schengen.
The parallels are numerous, hence the comparison.. Sure, there are wording that one has the other doesn't, but to me that's a pedantic platform to stand on. When you strip it all down to what they're for, they're essentially the same purpose.
Thanks. I think that's a fair comparison. Genuinely never made the connection.
