Question

question 2-15
both the maryland general assembly and the baltimore county council have the authority to.
○ approve budgets
○ deploy the national guard
○ override the governor’s veto
○ deny state appointments

Explanation:

To determine the correct answer, we analyze the powers of the Maryland General Assembly and the Baltimore County Council. Approving budgets is a key financial responsibility of legislative bodies (state assembly and county council) as they oversee fiscal matters. Deploying the National Guard is a governor's power, overriding a governor’s veto is a state - level (General Assembly) power but not a county council power, and denying state appointments is not a typical power of either in this context. So the most appropriate option is "approve budgets".

Answer:

A. approve budgets
