Question 1 • Civics and Government

Home rule means that local governments in Michigan can

Answer
A
write their own charters.
B
overrule state law.
C
write their own laws.
D
run their own court system.

Explanation

Home rule allows Michigan local governments to adopt and operate under their own charters, which set up their local government and its powers. Those powers remain subject to the Michigan Constitution and state law, so home rule does not let a city overrule state law or run a separate court system. The correct choice is “write their own charters.”
