Which of the following is an issue that would require a review of Constitutional law?

The issue that would require a review of Constitutional law is when a city wants to review news articles about its commission meetings before they are published in the local newspaper.
To understand why this is a Constitutional law issue, it's important to note that the First Amendment of the United States Constitution guarantees freedom of the press. This means that the government, including city officials, cannot engage in censorship or prior restraint, which is the act of reviewing or controlling content before it is published.
To reach this answer, you would have had to consider each scenario and analyze it in terms of Constitutional law. In this case, you would have recognized that the review of news articles before publication would impede freedom of the press, thus requiring a review of Constitutional law.
