Answer 1

Judicial review gives the Supreme Court the power **to review acts of Congress and the President to decide if they are constitutional**. This means the Court can strike down laws or executive actions that it finds violate the Constitution. Judicial review is a key component of the system of checks and balances in the U.S. government.
