Setting Importance

If a developer believes it is necessary to force a rule, and is worried about it being overwritten, they can append the keyword !important after the CSS property value. This tells the browser to give precedence to this rule.

NOTE: Be careful using the !important keyword, as it can cause you to forget why a rule is not working when otherwise it should be. Often times, it is the use of important in another rule.
