Answer:

D. Filing for a discharge petition

Explanation:

The best course of action for the congressman to take is 'the filing for a discharge petition'.

Normally, when a bill is introduced by a member of the House of Representatives, the speaker sends the bill to the relevant committee who then deliberate on it, seek expert advice etc. After the deliberations, the bill is then sent to the house for debate and possible voting for onward movement to the senate if passed by the majority.

In the event that the bill is stalled in the committee, the sponsor can file for a discharge petition. A discharge petition involves bringing out a bill from the committee that has spent at least thirty (30) days, without waiting for a report from the committee. To successfully file for a discharge petition, the sponsor must garner at least two hundred and eighteen votes (218) votes which is a clear majority.

The anti-federalists opposed this and claimed that a strong federal government could easily become tyrannical and become just like the European ones. The founding documents thus tried to find a compromise between these two stances.

Apartheid was a system used in the 1900s that isolated people according to race. The white minority ruled and the policy discriminated against non-white population groups such as Natives, African Americans, and Indians. This system effected South Africa greatly because it led to South Africa’s new constitution, which is founded on the values of the advancement of human rights and freedom.
