vovikov84 [41]

Answer:

Explanation:

The second World War greatly reshaped ideas about national identity in America, especially for first-generation immigrants, second-generation immigrants, and African-Americans. During the war - and in the midst of the war effort - immigrants and African-Americans were welcomed into the armed services and, also, in areas of production where support was needed. Many Americans, during this time, were able to somewhat relax or surrender their prejudices. Also, for immigrants and African-Americans, they often felt they were part of the American industry and service for the first time.

Why was the Reapportionment Act of 1929 passed? The number of senators per state was changing as the country expanded. Congressi

kow [346]

The reapportionment Act of 1929 was passed because membership in the house needed to be capped to prevent an excessive number of members.

On June 11, 1929, the House of Representatives passed the apportionment ACT which adjusted the number of representative as 435. The constitution of the United States called for at least one representative per state and that no more than one representatives for 30,000 persons. The size of state house delegation of a state will consequently relied on its population.

However, the founders were confused as to how large future congress should be after each federal census. The founders were also confused as to the method to be used to reapportion the house.

This uncertainty disturbed the congress as the United States territories widened and its population increased.

Normally, the House of Representatives reapportion itself in a way that didn’t affect the representation of most states. However, the method of calculating apportionment really affected the rural states by losing their representation to larger urbanized states.

Following 1920 census, the house was not able to apportion itself because of a battle that broke out among the rural and urban factions. On June 18, 1929, the house passed the permanent apportionment, which capped house membership after 1910 census. The act created a procedure whereby house seat were automatically apportioned after every decennial census.
