The Tenth Amendment provides that the powers not given to the federal government are reserved to the states or to the people.
 
  Indicate whether the statement is true or false

Question 2

In Chandler v. Miller, the Georgia legislature enacted a statute requiring candidates for public office to submit to drug tests. The court determined:
 
  a. the public's interest in having drug-free political representatives outweighs the candidate's privacy rights, so the law was constitutional
 b. the interest in having drug-free political officials did not constitute a special need, so the law was unconstitutional
 c. although the state's interest did not constitute a special need, the symbolic need was sufficient to validate the constitutionality of the statute
 d. although political officials do not operate nuclear power plants, handle or sell firearms,
  or operate equipment that directly affects the public, they regulate these and other public
  safety-intensive industries, so they must be held to the same standards as the regulated
  industry employees, making the statute constitutional
