The correct answer is C) the ICC could make railroads submit their records to Congress.

The power that the Interstate Commerce Commission (ICC) has over railroad operations is "the ICC could make railroads submit their records to Congress."

The US government knew that it had to create an agency to regulate all the trade issues in the country because some of them had created problems between people and companies. That is why on February 4, 1887, the Interstate Commerce Act included the Interstate Commerce Commission to specifically supervise and regulate railroads, bus lines, and telephone companies in America. The agency ended operations on January 1, 1996, and its many functions passed to the Surface Transportation Board.
