Which statement is false? A. The U.S. Constitution says that Congress holds the power to regulate trade, so the states are not a
llowed to tax interstate and foreign commerce (according to the Supreme Court). B. States are allowed to tax the federal government, according to the Supreme Court ruling in McCullough v. Maryland, 1819. C. Most states allow nonprofit groups like churches, private schools, and museums to be tax-exempt (not pay taxes). D. Since local governments, such as city councils, are under the authority of the state government, their powers to tax extend only to those areas determined by the state.
A. This is called the Commerce Clause, so this is true.
B. <span>McCulloch v. Maryland ruled that Maryland (a state) may not tax the national government. So B is false.
C. </span><span>Tax exemption is real and allows places like schools and churches to apply to be exempt from paying taxes. So C is true. </span> D. This is true since state powers overrule local powers so cities may only make laws that don't interfere with state or federal laws.
So the answer is <span>B. States are allowed to tax the federal government, according to the Supreme Court ruling in McCulloch v. Maryland, 1819.</span>
