Answer: A. The right of nullification

Explanation: The Right to Nullification:

Meant that states could invalidate a federal law that they felt went against the Constitution

Was based on the notion that the states had final authority on the Constitution as the U.S. was formed by an agreement between states

Andrew Jackson was against this right especially when South Carolina tried to use it to invalidate the Tariff of 1828. He asserted that federal authority overrode that of the state.
