C. Federal power
The fourth Chief Justice of the United States, John Marshall (1755–1835), spent 34 years as a justice on the Supreme Court. He has held the position of chief justice for the court the longest. He is still among the most revered judges in court history. At the cost of supporters of states' rights, the Court greatly increased the role of the federal government throughout his term (1801–1835) and widely construed the legislative, executive, and federal powers that the Constitution's framers had specified.
The First Amendment and other Bill of Rights clauses were only applicable to national government activities, according to the Court under Marshall's leadership.
