<u>Answer:</u>

The Interstate Commerce Act of 1887 required A. Equality in shipping rates charged by railroads.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The “Interstate Commerce Act” was passed in 1887. It is a federal law that was planned that helped in regulating the railroad industry. The Act made it obligatory that railroad rates should be "reasonable and just,". Though the government did not have the power to fix certain rates.

It also mentioned that railroads should announce the shipping rates and there should be no discrimination for the charges especially for smaller markets and farmers in Western or Southern Territory. The Act also created a federal regulatory agency, which monitored the railroads to make sure that they are complying with all the new rules and regulations.

Why did the patriot cause spread so quickly among the colonists after 1763? How did the republican ideals of the revolutionary c
Akimi4 [234]

Answer:

Because after 1763, England began to increase the control under the Thirteen Colonies, creating laws and taxes that benefit only itself, avoiding the self-development of the colonies. The republican ideas became common and spread over the country because the founding fathers did not want to create the same government in America. In a nutshell, they were against a monarchy, and all that this kind of government represents.

Explanation:

After the British victory in the Seven Years' War, to recover the finances, England began to create taxes and laws over its most profitable colonies in America. Until that moment, the Thirteen Colonies saw liberty that was not common in the American colonies at that time (especially if we consider the Iberian colonies). Then, England began to create terrible taxations, Proclamation line, Stamp Act, Sugar Act, Tea Act, Townshend Duties, all these laws to enforce and control the colonies displeased the settlers a lot, creating the feeling of republicanism and independence.

Maru [420]
The 14th Amendment guaranteed rights to life, liberty and <u>property</u> to all citizens born in the United States -- including those who formerly were slaves in states in the South.  The amendment was ratified in 1868, following the Civil War, and was one of three amendments (XIII, XIV, XV) which were aimed at making black Americans full citizens of the USA.  The 14th Amendment stated:  
<span><em>All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.</em></span>
