Answer:
Isolation
Explanation:
WAY back in the day, President Washington warned the U.S. in his farewell address not to become entangled with foreign nations since France was meddling in their politics. This established an impromptu policy of isolationism, where the U.S. would not get involved in any foreign conflicts, or entangle themselves in the political disputes of other nations. This carried through to WWI, until the Germans repeatedly sunk civilian vessels and killed innocent Americans. They still remained isolationists post WWI with the League of Nations, not entering into it.
When WWII came around, the attack on Pearl Harbor was a direct attack on America, and they couldn't remain isolated any longer. After the war, they joined the United Nations, and did end up entangling themselves in many nations in order to stop the spread of communism.

5. sit: a bill that will not be in progress or in any action but will be inactive for a particular time period.
6. version: a form or variation of the original.
Explanation:
There are various actions that the members of Congress take when discussing a piece of legislation. Once a bill or other legislative measure is first drawn up and debated by the committee or committees to which it was assigned, the legislation is sent to the floor of either the House or the Senate (both can have this committee process regarding legislation) If the bill is considered time-sensitive and important it will receive quick attention, and floor actions may be taken to modify or make amendments depending on the discussion in Congress. A bill may also sit and not receive consideration and it can kill the bill unless action is taken from the representatives or committees to bring it to the attention of Congress.
