Hi there!

John Marshall insisted the US Constitution was ...

B. The supreme law of the land

As a model for judges and Supreme Court justices alike for centuries after his death, John Marshall serves as a reminder that the Constitution is the supreme law of the land and trumps any and all policies, state laws, federal laws, and treaties made by the government. He upheld this with great pride during his time as Chief Justice of the Supreme Court.
