The correct answer is representation.

At the constitutional convention, big and small states fought constantly over representation in the legislative branch (also known as Congress). Having power in the legislative branch is important because this branch makes federal laws which all citizens are expected to follow.

Big states wanted representation in the legislative branch to be based on population. This would allow larger states, like Virginia, to have more power in terms of making laws. However, smaller states wanted equal representation in the legislative branch. That way each state had the same amount of power, regardless of size.

Ultimately, the two sides compromised with the House of Representatives being based on a states population and the Senate having two senators from each state, regardless of population.

Which of the following tools was most effectively used by Congress to limit the number of immigrants?
xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

For the first question, if I remember correctly, it was A, and for the 2nd, D.

Explanation:

From what I remember, Congress used literacy tests to limit the # of immigrants that came to the US, since they likely wouldn't be able to understand American language. And immigrants often suffer from poverty or persecution in their homes, which is why they immigrate.
