History
1 answer:
VMariaS [17]1 year ago
7 0

The Espionage Act, one of the federal government's most potent laws, is also regarded as one of its most contentious legislation.

The federal government's attempts to control espionage and public criticism of its military operations during World War I led to the creation of the Espionage Act of 1917. The Sedition Act was the name given to amendments made to it in May 1918.

The Civil Liberties Bureau was established in response to the debate over the 1917 Espionage Act (the predecessor of the American Civil Liberties Union). In the years immediately following World War I, the act served as the foundation for several significant Supreme Court cases.

At what federal level do we have term limits?
attashe74 [19]

<u><em>Answer:</em></u>

<u><em>Term limits in the United States apply to many offices at both the federal and state level, and date back to the American Revolution. </em></u>

<u><em> </em></u>

<u><em>Term limits, also referred to as rotation in office, restrict the number of terms of office an officeholder may hold. For example, according to the 22nd Amendment, the President of the United States can serve two four-year terms. </em></u>

<u><em> </em></u>

<u><em>Research shows that legislative term limits increase legislative polarization, reduce the legislative skills of politicians, reduce the legislative productivity of politicians weaken legislatures vis-a-vis the executive,and reduce voter turnout. Term limits have not reduced campaign spending reduced the gender gap in political representation, increased the diversity of law-makers,or increased the constituent service activities of law-makers.Term limits have been linked to lower growth in revenues and expenditures.</em></u>

Which statement about the end of World War I is true?
pantera1 [17]

Answer:

C. Germany was forced to limit the size of its military forces.

Explanation:

The Treaty of Versailles imposed several harsh restrictions on Germany as a losing power in the First World War. It limited the number of its armed forces, prohibited the development of certain systems of weapons, established a demilitarized zone in the Rhineland and imposed exorbitant reparations on Germany. No wonder all of this led to outrage and resentment among the German population in the postwar period.
