Explanation:

2. Dual sovereignty stands for 'sharing the judicial power among the state, as well as, federal government' where each monitors the actions of the other and ensure appropriate enforcement of law, securing individual freedom, and avoid the concentration of power.

3. Federalism is described as the system of national government in which power is divided between a central authority i.e. 'state' and a number of regions ie.. ' federal governments' with de-limiting self governing authority.

4. Checks and balances is elucidated as the system for multiple branches of government wherein each has some control over the actions of each of the others. It helps in preventing the monopoly of an individual.

5. Majority rule, as the name suggests, stands for 'most of the people or more than half of the people' being agreed to a political decision in order to make it effective. Thus, a decision is taken or applied only when majority of the members agree to it.

Why is it difficult for congress people to “make change”?

pochemuha

There are many step in getting a bill to be passed, and it is a longer process. A bill can be introduced in either chamber of Congress by a senator or representative who sponsors it.

Once a bill is introduced, it is assigned to a committee whose members will research, discuss, and make changes to the bill. The bill is then put before that chamber to be voted on. If the bill passes one body of Congress, it goes to the other body to go through a similar process of research, discussion, changes, and voting. Once both bodies vote to accept a bill, they must work out any differences between the two versions. Then both chambers vote on the same exact bill and, if it passes, they present it to the president. The president then considers the bill. The president can approve the bill and sign it into law or veto the bill. If the president chooses to veto a bill, in most cases Congress can vote to override that veto and the bill becomes a law. But, if the president pocket vetoes a bill after Congress has adjourned, the veto cannot be overridden.
