'''Nullification''' refers to the right of the [[States of the United States of America|states]] to ignore any [[federal]] law that is [[unconstitutional]]. [[Thomas Jefferson]]'s [[Virginia and Kentucky Resolutions]] inspired [[South Carolina]] [[United States Congress|Congressman]] [[John C. Calhoun]] during the [[Nullification Crisis]] of 1832. The legal status of nullification has never been fully resolved, but legal cases based on the [[Tenth Amendment]] appear promising.
