Answer 2

Correct Answer is option (C): Congress generally must approve interstate compacts.

Interstate compacts are fundamentally contracts between two or more states forming an agreement on a specific policy issue, adaptation of a certain standard or related to cooperation on regional or national issues.

Interstate compacts are the most powerful, long lasting, and adaptive procedure for enforcing cooperative activities  among the states.

There are more than 200 active interstate compacts in U.S.A.

Twenty-two of them are national in nature, including a number of 35 or more states members and an independent commission to apply the agreement.
