Which of the following statements best explains how this excerpt from President Obama’s State of the Union address reflects the separation of powers?

“With all due deference to separation of powers, last week the Supreme Court reversed a century of law that I believe will open the floodgates for special interests—including foreign corporations—to spend without limit in our elections.

And I’d urge Democrats and Republicans to pass a bill that helps to correct some of these problems.”
