The New Jersey Plan was presented on June 15 of 1787 by William Paterson as a proposal for the estructure of the United States Government.
In contrast to the Virginia Plan, the New Jersey Plan reflected the belief that every state was an independent entity. It proposed an unicameral legislature that allowed one vote per state, allowing states to be sovereign and independent, therefore allowing them to veto federal laws.
Therefore, the right option would be:
States would remain sovereign and have the power to veto federal laws.
Have a great day!
