A State.

Explanation:

According to the the Commerce Clause Article 1, Section 8, Clause 3 of the United States Constitution, it provides that the Congress shall have the power to regulate interstate and foreign commerce.

The Commerce Clause provides that the Congress has sole power to regulate foreign trades and trades within the states. A state has no power to regulate any interstate or foreign trade activities. It can only regulate trade within the state itself.
