If Congress declares a person to be guilty of a crime without having been given a trial, this would be an example of a Bill of Attainder. A Bill of Attainder is defined as the legislative act of convicting a person to punishment, without a previous trial. The Constitution of the United States, in its Article 1, states that "no Bill of Attainder or ex post facto law will be passed". The constitution's statement tries to represent the idea that courts exist in order to judge a case and as a consequence of such action, impose or not a punishment.

How did Thanksgiving go on to be<br> an official holiday? Explain.

castortr0y [4]

Answer:

Thanksgiving came to be an official holiday in 1863, declared by President Abraham Lincoln.

Explanation:

The Thanksgiving feast between Pilgrims and the Natives was not public till Bradford's diary was given to be published in 1789. When, a magazine editor Sarah Josepha Hale came across this tradition celebrated by Pilgrims and Natives, she wrote letters to five Presidents asking to declare Thanksgiving, a national holiday. It was President Abraham Lincoln who paid heed to this request and with an idea of unte the country during his presidency, he declared the last Thursday of November as a Thanksgiving day and declared it a national holiday. The date, however, was changed to fourth Thursday of November by President Franklin D. Roosevelt in 1941, to avoid shifting of national holiday (as some year may have five Thursday's in November).
