in 1965, Congress adopted the voting rights act. Describe this act. In your description, explain what led Congress to pass the a
nikdorinn [45]
The act was about ensuring people have voting rights and preventing states from preventing voting rights in various ways such as having literacy tests or voting taxes or anything similar. One effect can be that it enabled for all people to vote regardless of color or origin, and another is that it enabled minorities and immigrants to vote too because it enabled minorities who didn't know English that well to vote using bilingual ballots.

Which of the following BEST describes an important strength of the Articles of Confederation?
kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

D.  It provided for a system of checks and balances.

Explanation:

After the signing of the Articles of Confederation, thirteen colonies, which became now states, adopted their own constitutions. Their main goal was to ensure those “inalienable rights,” the violation of which prompted the colonies to sever relations with Great Britain. Each constitution proclaimed certain general principles that the state government was going to follow. The constitutions of all states provided for the separation of powers into the executive, legislative, and judicial branches, the introduction of a system of checks and balances, in which each branch of government was limited and balanced by the others.
