A test applied by the court when a classification is based on race; the government must show that there is a compelling reason for the law and no other less restrictive way to meet the interest.1. True2. False

Respuesta :

Answer: True

Explanation:Classifications involving suspect classifications such as race, however, are subject to closer scrutiny. A rationale for this closer scrutiny was suggested by the Court in a famous footnote in the 1938 case of Carolene Products v. United States. Usually, strict scrutiny will result in invalidation of the challenged classification, but not always, as illustrated by Korematsu vs United States, in which the Court upholds a military exclusion order directed at Japanese-Americans during World War II. Loving vs Virginia produces a more typical result when racial classifications are involved: a unanimous Supreme Court strikes down Virginia's miscegenation law.
