Answer:

The correct answer for this is 'Munn v. Illinois'.

Step-by-step explanation:

In 1877, there was a case of Munn v. Illinois in which the Supreme Court of the United States of America upheld the power of the government to regulate private industries.

As a result of the Illinois legislature’s responding to pressure from the National Grange (which was an association of the farmers), this case was developed.

Therefore, the Supreme Court gave the right to the US government to regulate private businesses/

The right answer is:

The Interstate Commerce Act of 1887 was the first federal law to regulate private industry in the United States. It was later amended to regulate other industries.
