The limits on the powers of Congress are as follows:
1. The Congress is not allowed to pass laws post ex facto which means that the law cannot prosecute people for a something that was not considered a crime before.
2. Congress is denied the ability to pass bills of attainder meaning they are not allowed to prosecute criminals in special tribunals but only in regular court trials.
3. The Congress cannot suspend the writ of habeas corpus means that the Congress cannot deny the right of the criminals to stand before a judge and learn the charges they face that enables them to defend themselves.
The correct answer is D.
The commitees in the US Congress are legislative sub-organizations, and each develops specialized knowledge on its subject (Agriculture, Armed Services, or Financial Services, for example).
The comitees supervise on-going governmental operations, identify matters that should be analized through legislative review, they compare and evaluate legislative alternatives; identify policy problems and propose possible solutions and they recommend courses of action to be discussed in the Congress chambers.
<u>Comitees are fundamental and completely inherent to the legislative process undertaken in Congress</u>, as it is not possible that Congress members are specialists on every subject discussed in the chambers and therefore they have to rely on the valuable information elaborated by the comitees in order to reach appropiate decisions.
