QUestion 4 4 polnts Who enforced laws when Congress passed them under the Articles of Confederation? sELECT an answer National government Congress Cities States

Under the Articles of Confederation, it was primarily the states that enforced laws passed by Congress. The national government didn't have the power to enforce laws directly; it relied on states to implement and comply with the legislation. This often led to inconsistencies and conflicts, as different states could interpret and enforce laws in various ways. The Articles created a loose confederation that limited federal authority, which meant that if states decided to ignore or selectively enforce federal laws, there was little Congress could do about it. This lack of enforcement capability was one of the key factors that resulted in the eventual drafting of the U.S. Constitution to create a stronger central government.
