Answer:

Hi there!

Your answer is:

The idea that states can declare a federal law unconstitutional is called Nullification

Nullification, in United States constitutional history, is a legal theory that a state has the right to nullify, or invalidate, any federal law which that state has deemed unconstitutional with respect to the United States Constitution (as opposed to the state's own constitution).

I hope this helps!
