The statement about President Eisenhower's interstate highway system which isn't true (false) is that: <em>A. The interstate highway system was constructed solely by the federal government.</em>

In the United States of America, the interstate highway system is considered to be the largest public works project that was ever undertaken by the federal government.

Additionally, the creation of an interstate highway system for rapid transportation of people, goods and services and increased national defense was recommended by the Toll Roads and Free Roads report of 1939.

The Federal-Aid Highway Act of 1956 was famously referred to as the National Interstate and Defense Highways Act (NIDHA). It was an Act enacted by the 84th US Congress on the 29th of June, 1956 and signed into law by President Dwight D. Eisenhower.  

The effect of the Federal-Aid Highway Act of 1956 include the following;

  •  It was used by the federal government to fund over 41,000 miles of interstate highways in the United States of America.
  • It enabled and facilitated a faster means of transportation across the United States of America.
  • Freeways were significantly added to cities and as a result of this, it encouraged the growth of suburban areas in the United States of America.

In conclusion, the creation of an interstate highway system wasn't constructed solely by the federal government because state governors were implored (urged) by President Dwight David Eisenhower to build an efficient and modern interstate highway system across the United States of America.

"<span>(c)the ability of citizens to vote" is the best answer but this is very misleading. A referendum is when the citizens vote directly on a specific issue of policy. It's not their ability to vote for mayors, legislators, etc.</span>
