A state legalizes marijuana, but federal law still bans it; federal agents enforce the ban. What relationship is shown?
A
Interposition; state legalization automatically blocks federal enforcement within state borders because states are equal sovereigns in criminal law.
B
Preemption under the Supremacy Clause; when federal and state laws conflict, federal enforcement may proceed despite state legalization.
C
Full Faith and Credit; federal agents must honor the state's legalization policy and treat marijuana possession as lawful nationwide.
D
Privileges and Immunities; residents of other states may sue to force federal legalization because they are entitled to equal benefits.
E
Reserved police powers; state criminal codes always override federal statutes because public safety regulation is exclusively state authority.
