Preston Brooks was a Southern Congressman and a passionate advocate of Southern Rights. Charles Sumner was an ardent abolitionist who delivered an impassioned speech against the authors of the Kansas-Nebraska Act of 1856. He also ridiculed the speech impediment of one of the authors, Andrew Butler. Preston Brooks got angry because he was the nephew of Andrew Butler. Together with a friend, Brooks approached Sumner as the latter worked at his desk and started caning Sumner. Sumner collapsed in the aisle and Preston Brooks continued caning him until his cane broke. Southerners sent canes to Preston Brooks to replace the one he broke.
<span>The system of checks and balances works like this; when a bill is proposed the senate votes on it, if it passes there it then goes to the house of representatives if it passes there it goes on to the president who either approves it or vetos it. If it is vetoed or doesn't pass by two thirds in either the house or the senate it has to be revised and voted on all over again. If it makes it through all the checks then it becomes a law</span>

Answer: C. Due to the privileges and immunities clause of article IV for citizens of other states might move to Maryland in order to take advantage of the benefits
The text of the clause is as follows:
<em>"The Citizens of each State shall be entitled to all Privileges and Immunities of Citizens in the several States."</em>
The Privileges and Immunities Clause is found in the United States Constitution, Article IV, Section 2, Clause 1. It is also known as the Comity Clause. It establishes that no state should treat the citizens from other states in a discriminatory manner. It is also inferred from the clause that citizens have the right of movement between states. Due to this clause, it is possible for citizens from other states to move to Maryland to take advantage of its increased welfare benefits.
