Question 16
2 points
If someone has a medical permit that allows them to possess and consume marijuana in one state, why can it still be illegal for that person to possess and consume marijuana in Texas?
O a. Only the national government can decide which states can have legal marijuana, and Texas has not yet been approved by the federal government for legalization.
O b. The doctrine of dual federalism creates a multilayered approach where states can decide which actions they will recognize and which actions they will not.
O c. The Tenth Amendment says that states can set their own laws and policies, even if they overrule federal law.
O d. Under the public policy exception, states do not have to give "full faith and credit" to actions by another state if those actions are viewed as being against the policy goals of the state.
