Answer
A
refusing to amend the Constitution.
B
refusing to ratify Constitutional amendments.
C
violating the Supremacy Clause.
D
violating the Full Faith and Credit Clause.

Explanation

The Supremacy Clause makes the Constitution and valid federal laws the supreme law of the land. Therefore, a state that refuses to follow a valid federal law violates that clause. The Full Faith and Credit Clause concerns recognizing other states’ laws and legal decisions, not federal authority.
