Question

which accurately describes the supremacy clause?
states can violate federal law with a judges consent.
no state can contradict federal law.
only judges may amend the constitution.
federal judges may never contradict state laws.

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

The Supremacy Clause, part of the U.S. Constitution, establishes that federal law is the supreme law of the land, meaning state laws cannot conflict with valid federal law. The other options are incorrect: states cannot violate federal law with judicial consent, judges do not amend the Constitution, and federal law (and thus federal judges enforcing it) takes precedence over state laws when there is a conflict.

Answer:

No state can contradict federal law.
