    The correct answer is nullification

    This was a process that was very popular in politics in earlier times, such as the 19th century, but it is not talked about as much nowadays. The states believed that if they perceive a federal law to be tyrannical that they can apply nullification which in laymen terms means that they just wouldn't adopt it or adhere by it.
