Why is being a member of congress more than a 9 to 5 job?

History
1 answer:
nika2105 [10]3 years ago

Normally, 9 to 5 jobs pay minimun wage, and are steady/common. Being a member of congress has high requirements to get to the level of being able to pass laws, bills, to veto the President's laws, and many more responisbilities. Having a 9 to 5 job means being a civilian with basic rights and knowledge. Working your way up to being a member of congress is highly prized, uncommon, and rarely attainable.

Hope this helps :)    -Laura

How are your rights protected at trial? What role does the 6th Amendment play in protecting these rights? *
Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

You have the right to a fair trial and the 6th amendment gives you the right to a defendent.

Explanation:

Before the 6th amendment fair trials wern't really possible because if you were wrongly accusd it was extremly difficult if not impossible to be proved innocent because you weren't allowed a lawyer to fight for you. Nowadays you are allowed a criminal defendent that makes sure you have your rights and you are not wrongly accused.

helpp How are patrician & lower class families similar (Hint: Who is the head of the family?) 6. How are patrician girls &am
ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

1. How are patrician and lower class families similar?)) The patricians were any member of a group of citizen families who formed a privileged class in early Rome. The patricians were the wealthy upper class, who owned land and held political power. The plebeians were the working class without substantial wealth. (the head of the family is/were paterfamilias)

2. How are patrician girls and slaves similar/How are Roman women and plebeians similar?))

<em><u>(</u></em><em><u>(</u></em><em><u>woman</u></em><em><u>)</u></em><em><u>)</u></em><em><u> </u></em>Roman women had a very limited role in public life. They could not attend, speak in, or vote at political assemblies and they could not hold any position of political responsibility. ... Typical jobs undertaken by such women were in agriculture, markets, crafts, as midwives and as wet-nurses.

<em><u>(</u></em><em><u>(</u></em><em><u>plebe</u></em><em><u>ians</u></em><em><u>)</u></em><em><u>)</u></em> They protected some basic rights of all Roman citizens regardless of their social class. Eventually the plebeians were allowed to elect their own government officials. They elected "tribunes" who represented the plebeians and fought for their rights. They had the power to veto new laws from the Roman senate. (Roman women cannot vote, but plebeians now can. in the early stages of Roman, plebeians had very few rights aswell)
