What % of the house or senate does it take to expel a member?

History
1 answer:
Sholpan [36]2 years ago
6 0

Congress requires a two-thirds vote to remove a member of Congress, as stated in Article 1, Section 5, Clause 2 of the U.S. Constitution. Congress members also have the right to investigate the actions of members when they may be questionable.

The Constitution allows Congress to create its own rules about disciplining and investigating members. This provision helps ensure that the other two branches of government stay out of Congress's internal affairs.

Since 1789, only 20 Congress members have been expelled. Many expulsions were during the Civil War and were related to supporting the Confederate forces. As of 2014, the most likely reason for expulsion is corruption.

What impact did the<br> railroad have on the United States?
Mars2501 [29]
The railroad was able to aid others in communication, transportation, and products. An example is mail. People used trains to transport mail in order to communicate with others. Traveling was also cheaper and safer now with railroads since it was able to get people where they needed to be much more quickly. And finally products, manufacturers could send supplies to other places in a short amount of time much more easily.
