What happened when Lee Yick appealed his conviction for running an illegal laundry in San Francisco to the U.S. Supreme Court?

History
1 answer:
Norma-Jean [14]3 years ago
6 0
C. The Supreme Court decided that authorities had unfairly singled him out because of his race. This was because Lee Yick had worked in a laundromat for twenty years and it was illegal at the time that laundromats were to be built in wooden rooms. However, ninety-five percent of laundromats were in wooden complexes and only some of them were Chinese-owned, while others were owned by other races. However, Lee Yick was singled out and the Supreme Court ruled that although the law said it was race-blind, it in fact was judging him based on his race.

What this map tells you is that Mongolia has a hard time getting supplied with water, or they don't have a lot of places to get water.

Answer:

Aaron Burr

Explanation:

Jefferson and his running mate Aaron Burr each received seventy-three votes. With the votes tied, the election was thrown to the House of Representatives as required by Article II, Section 1 of the U.S. Constitution.

The Democratic-Republicans' failure to execute their plan to award Jefferson one more vote than Burr resulted in a tie, which necessitated a contingent election in the House of Representatives. Under the terms laid out in the Constitution, the outgoing House of Representatives chose between Jefferson and Burr.
