Which of the following situations best illustrates the function of Article Six (6) of the US Constitution?

The Legislative branch is divided into two bodies of law makers: The House of Representatives and the Senate.

The President has the authority to veto laws created by the Legislative branch.

No government body has the right to make laws that infringe upon Constitutional freedoms

The Supreme Court Justices serve life terms

Correct answer: No government body has the right to make laws that infringe upon Constitutional freedoms.

The second clause of Article VI of the Constitution is famously known as "The Supremacy Clause." The article asserts the supremacy of the Constitution over all over laws enacted in the land. It reads as follows:

This Constitution, and the Laws of the United States which shall be made in Pursuance thereof; and all Treaties made, or which shall be made, under the Authority of the United States, shall be the supreme Law of the Land; and the Judges in every State shall be bound thereby, any Thing in the Constitution or Laws of any State to the Contrary notwithstanding.

If the US Constitution is the "supreme Law of the Land," then no government body has the right to make laws that infringe on Constitutional freedoms.
