The US Constitution empowers both houses of Congress to establish rules and procedures for the transaction of legislative business. Senators generally have a range of actions they can take to support or oppose a piece of legislation. A particular member of the majority party in the Senate is opposed to a piece of legislation introduced by the majority party.

(A) Identify an action that the senator can take to make it more difficult for the majority party to pass this piece of legislation.

(B) In the context of the scenario, explain how the majority party would most likely respond to the action taken in part A.

(C) The president belongs to the same party as the Senate’s majority party, and the midterm election is six months away. In the context of the scenario, explain how these two factors would affect the interaction between the senator and the majority party.

Answer:

(A) A senator can make it more difficult to pass this piece of legislation by using a filibuster to stop or delay the bill the from passing.

(B) The majority leader can also use a cloture. The majority leader may cast such votes as take-it-or-leave-it propositions.Cloture is not merely a procedural tool that Senate majorities use to overcome minority filibusters.The increase in cloture votes also documents the effort of majority parties and majority leaders to expand their control over the Senate.

(C) The senator party could stop or delay a piece of legislation by using a filibuster if they oppose, what wants to be done. To stop this from happening the majority leaders could use a cloture which would overpower the senate's decision to use a filibuster. The cloture would cast votes in favor or oppose of the legislation piece. Since the president is part of the senate's majority party, there is a higher chance that the president will try to get things over with as soon as possible while trying to help their citizens.

Explanation:

This is what I put. Hope this helps.

(A) By employing a filibuster to prevent or postpone the passage of this law, a senators can make it increasingly challenging to pass it.

(B) A filibuster can also be used by the party chairman.

Turn proposals may be cast by the party chairman.

Cloture is more than just a procedural weapon used by Senate majority to get around minor filibusters. The growth in cloture votes reflects minority parties' and dominant leaders' efforts to consolidate control of the Senate.

(C) Unless a senator's organization opposes something that has to be done, they can use the filibuster to halt or postpone it.

To prevent this, the dominant leaders may invoke cloture, which would nullify the Senate's resolution to employ the stalemate. Cloture will cast majority support or against a piece of legislation.

Because the president belongs to the majority party in the House, there's a better likelihood he'll attempt to get things done as quickly as possible while still trying to serve his constituents.

This year there was a proposal to increase government funding for public schools to help implement a new curriculum for Primary and Secondary education students (k-12) that emphasizes Patriotism, National Pride, Civic Duty, and the Glory of American History while downplaying the impacts made by other nations/countries and the less-than-glorious moments in American history. Things such as resistance to American government action and the impacts of unfair laws will be taught but will not receive as much attention as their counterparts. The proposed policy calls for an additional $20 billion to be directed toward public education to provide training for school staff and provide the necessary materials for this new curriculum.


Currently, this law is being debated in Congress and has gone through several revisions. There is no current date set for a vote on whether or not this should become a law.

The helicopter view in the figure below shows two people pulling on a stubborn mule. (Take F1 = 110 N and F2 = 79.0 N.)
An illustration shows the helicopter view of a mule being pulled along a forked road in two directions by two men. An x y coordinate system is overlaid on the image, with the origin at the mule's nose, and the mule facing in the positive y-direction. The man on the right is pulling the mule toward the right-side forked road with a force F1. This force vector makes an angle of 60.0° with the horizontal drawn right in front of where the mule is standing. The man on the left is pulling the mule toward the left-side forked road with a force F2. This force vector makes an angle 75.0° with the horizontal.

Refer to the passage.

"The next day (25th May) (the Chan) sent his secretaries to me, who said: ‘Our lord sends us to you to say that you are here Christians, Saracens [Muslims] and Tuins. And each of you says that his doctrine is the best, and his writings—that is, books—the truest. So he wishes that you shall all meet together, and make a comparison, each one writing down his precepts, so that he himself may be able to know the truth.’ Then I said: ‘Blessed be God, who put this in the Chan’s heart. But our Scriptures tell us, the servant of God should not dispute, but should show mildness to all; so I am ready, without disputation or contention, to give reason for the faith and hope of the Christians, to the best of my ability.’ They wrote down my words, and carried them back to him. Then it was told the Nestorians that they should look to themselves, and write down what they wished to say, and likewise to the Saracens [Muslims], and in the same way to the Tuins.”
