Which government sector has the ability to respond countercyclically to the economy? state only. federal only. local only. feder
ELEN [110]
The correct answer is federal only

The federal government is the only one who has the power to respond to such situations. Countercyclical states are when the opposite of what is going to the economy is happening in another field. For example, unemployment is countercyclical because the slower the economy, the higher the unemployment. The federal government is the only one that can respond to this.

What is one way the supreme court can check power of the senate
Hunter-Best [27]

The Supreme Court can declare laws passed by Congress (the House of Representatives and the Senate) to be unconstitutional.

More detail:

Judicial review refers to the courts' ability to review any law to see if it violates any existing law or any statute of a state constitution or the US Constitution.  On the federal level, Marbury v. Madison (1803) is considered the landmark case for the Supreme Court asserting its authority of judicial review, to strike down a law as unconstitutional.

Background on the landmark case concerning the Supreme Court's power of judicial review:

It was sort of a roundabout way in which the principle of judicial review was asserted by the Supreme Court in the case of Marbury v. Madison. William Marbury had been appointed Justice of the Peace for the District of Columbia by outgoing president John Adams -- one of a number of such last-minute appointments made by Adams.  When Thomas Jefferson came into office as president, he directed his Secretary of State, James Madison, not to deliver many of the commission papers for appointees such as Marbury.  Marbury petitioned the Supreme Court directly to hear his case, as a provision of the Judiciary Act of 1789 had made possible.  The Court said that particular provision of the Judiciary Act was in conflict with Article III of the Constitution, and so they could not issue a specific ruling in Marbury's case (which they believe he should have won).  Nevertheless, in making their statement about the case, the Court established the principle of judicial review.
