Which of the following represents the goal of the supremacy clause?

US Supreme Court may decide to reject
Legislative branch holds the most power
Judicial branch reviews laws
President can make laws

The correct answer is: US Supreme Court may decide to reject

The goal of the supremacy clause is to establish that the US Constitution and federal laws take precedence over state laws in cases of conflict. Option A, which states that the US Supreme Court may reject state laws, aligns with this goal. The other options (B, C, D) do not accurately reflect the function or purpose of the supremacy clause. Option B incorrectly suggests that the legislative branch holds ultimate power, while the supremacy clause was created to balance powers between the federal and state governments. Option C is partially correct, as the judicial branch does review laws, but this is not the main focus of the supremacy clause. Option D is incorrect because the Constitution specifically outlines the separation of powers, giving the president the power to enforce laws, not create them.
