Most of the powers of government were given to the legislatures; the new state governors, for the most part, had little real aut

hority. In every state except Massachusetts and New York, the governor was chosen by the legislature, and in most of them only for a one-year term. And only in three states did the governor have a veto power.
How does this compare to the status that governors hold today?

A. Most state governments still give the majority of power to the legislature and limit the power of governors.
B. Modern governors have much more authority than what the excerpt describes, including the veto power over legislation.
C. Today, governors have more power than they once had, but they are still limited to one-year terms in most states.
D. Contemporary governors have less power than early state governors but still play an important role

The second alternative is correct (B).

Governors are elected for four-year terms, such as the president, and have the power to govern states in an executive way. Each state has its constituted rules, but governors usually have the power to veto laws that they see as inconvenient.

In short, today's governors have far more power than the first governors of US history.

Which event demonstrates the agency of enslaved African Americans?
Diano4ka-milaya [45]

The Freedmen’s Bureau, formally known as the Bureau of Refugees, Freedmen and Abandoned Lands, was established in 1865 by Congress to help millions of former black slaves and poor whites in the South in the aftermath of the Civil War. The Freedmen’s Bureau provided food, housing and medical aid, established schools and offered legal assistance. It also attempted to settle former slaves on land confiscated or abandoned during the war. However, the bureau was prevented from fully carrying out its programs due to a shortage of funds and personnel, along with the politics of race and Reconstruction.
