"But let us admit Texas, and we shall place the balance of power in the hands of the Texans themselves. They, with the Southern

states, will control the policy and the destiny of this nation; our tariff will then be held at the will of the Texan advocates of free trade. Are our friends of the North prepared to deliver over this great national policy to the people of Texas?" - Rep. Joshua Giddings, Ohio, May 21, 1844 This quote points to what major issue in the years leading up to the Civil War?

It points to the Texas Annexation. The Republic of Texas was admitted to the Union as the 28th state on December 29, 1845.

The Republic of Texas declared its independence from the Republic of Mexico in 1836. The majority of the Texian population agreed with the annexation of Texas by the United States. Those who opposed to the annexation were the Democrats and the Whigs, they wished to avoid war with Mexico, whose government refused to acknowledge the sovereignty of its rebellious northern province.

Three reasons why the prohibition was repealed
Y_Kistochka [10]

Explanation:

Tens of thousands of people died because of prohibition-related violence and drinking unregulated booze. The big experiment came to an end in 1933 when the Twenty-first Amendment was ratified by 36 of the 48 states. The Twenty-first Amendment was deemed so necessary (and the Eighteenth so ineffective), it is the only Constitutional amendment ever passed to overturn a previous amendment. Hence, Prohibition was a terrible mistake.

Question 2 (1 point)
Masteriza [31]

The 14th Amendment allows state and local governments to act in an unfair manner is <u>False</u>.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The 14th Amendment Prohibits state and local governments from acting in an unfair manner. The fifth Amendment precludes the national government from acting in an uncalled for way. The Supreme Court has broadened the assurances of the Bill of Rights, in light of the fair treatment provison.

In spite of the fact that the content of the Fourteenth Amendment applies the Equal Protection Clause just against the states, the Supreme Court, since Bolling v. Sharpe (1954), has applied the Clause against the government through the Due Process Clause of the Fifth Amendment under a precept called "switch consolidation". The Constitution of the United States of America is the preeminent tradition that must be adhered to State laws in the Virginia and United States constitutions.
