Question
which of the following is not true about state legislatures? many states have bicameral legislatures. state legislatures can override federal laws. state legislatures cannot create national laws.
The Supremacy Clause of the U.S. Constitution establishes that federal law takes precedence over state law, so state legislatures cannot override federal laws. Many states do have bicameral legislatures (e.g., Senate and House of Representatives), and state legislatures only create state laws, not national ones—both of which are true statements. Thus, the false claim is that state legislatures can override federal laws.
