What if nullification and who has the power to deem something nullified?
Nullification is the theory that states can invalidate federal laws they believe are unconstitutional. It posits that states have the authority to reject federal mandates within their borders. However, the U.S. Constitution does not grant states this power, and the Supreme Court has consistently ruled that federal law takes precedence over state law. Ultimately, the power to deem a law nullified lies with the judiciary, particularly the Supreme Court, which interprets the Constitution and federal statutes.
