He can either veto a law or cancel anything in his/her way. The president’s veto can also only be overridden by a two/thirds majority vote in both the House and the Senate.

While the president often plays a role in crafting legislation, it is up to Congress to vote on and pass it. However, the president can veto any piece of legislation. This veto power is limited because a two-thirds majority vote in both the House and the Senate will override the veto and make the legislation law.

In a paragraph, compare the political contributions of William Wilberforce and Mary Wollstonecraft. In what ways were their cont

Morgarella [4.7K]

William Wilberforce was inspired by his Christian faith to do humanitarian reforms and was a proponent for the abolition of the slave trade. With the help of some Christian, and politically involved friends they were able to push the Slave Trade Act. He also made some social reforms on working conditions.

Mary Wollstonecraft was also an author of several civil rights writings and was very much of a feminist and an advocate for women's rights.

Both of them fought for the rights of people. They only differ in their focus.
