Hey!

The Morrill Act was a legislation that allowed states to create colleges to benefit their population. It also helped establish universities for African Americans since segregation was common during that time. To remember that moment, people created stamps in order to commemorate that special moment.

Let me know if you have any questions regarding this topic!
Thanks!

Which statement about the Supreme Court is true?
Sergio039 [100]

<u>Answer:</u>

E. The court can hear only cases that have worked their way up from local courts.

This statement about the Supreme Court is true.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Clients or entities who are not happy with the jurisdiction and result of the lower courts can apply the request or petition at the U.S Supreme Court to hear their case. One can ask for the review of the case by asking it to grant a "writ of certiorari".

This means the lower court where the case was initially filed has to send a copy to the Supreme court for review. It generally never hears cases as such until the case is of national significance or the result of a case might harmonize a conflicting decision to settle or when it might have precedential value.

The Equal Rights Amendment ______.
serious [3.7K]

Correct answer:

<h2>B. Was never ratified</h2>

History/details:

The Equal Rights Amendment, formulated as early as 1923 by the National Women's Party, proposed that "equality of rights under the law shall not be abridged by the United States or by any State on account of sex." Feminist groups in the 1960s and 1970s, such as the National Organization for Women, finally succeeded in getting Congress to pass the Equal Rights Amendment as a proposed addition to the US Constitution. It was passed by Congress and sent to the states for ratification in 1972.

The National Organization for Women continued to be a leading voice in pushing for ratification for the amendment. However, conservative groups, especially led by a woman named Phyllis Schlafly, campaigned against ratification. A key point Schlafly focused on was that women would then be subject to military draft and military combat service in the same way as men. This became the key issue and the Equal Rights Amendment failed to achieve the necessary number of states supporting ratification.
