"For a bill to become a law it must be passed by both houses in precisely the same words and figures. The second house frequentl

y amends and then returns the bill to the house of origin. In the case of significant bills, with substantial differences, the shortcut of a conference committee likely will be taken almost immediately. A conference committee is composed of 3 members from the Senate and 3 members from the House of Representatives. As a separate committee, they vote separately, not only on the final product but on any subsidiary questions put to a vote. This suggests a give-and-take process because if a majority of the conferees from either house refuses to budge, the conference would be stalemated and the bill could fail. However, this rarely happens." According to the passage, what is the purpose of using a "conference committee" in the legislative process? A) Conference committees permit the governor to exercise control over the legislative branch. B) Conference committees are only utilized in extreme situations like war or natural disasters. C) Conference committees are necessary to reconcile differences between the House and Senate regarding bills. D) Conference committees are always the last resort that the House and Senate use to come to a consensus regarding a bill.

Which of the following wasabi result of the equal pay act
DaniilM [7]

Yes, all of the laws enforced by the EEOC prohibit pay discrimination. Pay discrimination based on sex is also prohibited by Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. Title VII prohibits discrimination in compensation and other terms and conditions of employment, so it is broader than the EPA.

What were Sacajawea's feelings about the Lewis and Clark Expedition
aev [14]
Their thoughts can't be hundred percent sure without the diaries but they had thoughts on how much hardship they would have to go through the trip across mountains and rocky paths, they also had to survive with minimal resources, so their thoughts on this was probably brave and rough trip, they had no clue if they were gonna survive or what was gonna happen, they territory was unknown.
