Explanation:
Article VI, Clause 2 of the United States Constitution is also known as the "Supremacy Clause". The Supremacy Clause is considered the most important guarantor of national union, by stating that the Constitution, federal laws and treaties made under its authority constitute the "supreme law of the country", and therefore state laws are bound by them. In summary, the Supreme Clause states officially that state laws can be declared unconstitutional if found to be in detriment with federal laws, treaties or the Constitution.
