History
1 answer:
N76 [4]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

In order for the states to receive an amendment for consideration, 2/3rd majority of each House of Congress has to approve it.

Explanation:

Amendment to the constitution is only happened a few times in the history of the United States. In more than 200 years of history, the constitution has only been amended 33 times.

The first time Amendment was completed in December 15, 1791 and the latest one was completed in July 1, 1971.

The reason why there have been so few amendments is because 2/3rds of both houses of congress have to agree and vote in favor of these.

This is no easy task but this is precisely what makes the whole process worthwhile and keeps it in check.

What did President Clinton believe would be a result of the North American Free Trade Agreement? increased jobs and lower prices
miv72 [106K]

increased jobs and lower prices

Clinton signed the North American Free Trade Agreement in 1994 to remove the barriers to trade with Mexico and Canada with the goal of creating new American jobs and lower prices on imported goods.

During the late 1970's and through the 1980's the US began to de-industrialize. This means factories began to shut down as companies were established in developing countries. Americans were experiencing job loss and prices on goods now produced in other countries were expensive due to tariffs. By signing NAFTA, Clinton removed tariffs from goods imported from Canada and Mexico making many manufactured goods and foods cheaper. The agreement also created more jobs in new industries to support the imports coming in. Customer service based jobs became available which were better paying jobs than the factory jobs they were replacing.

Which was a source of motivation during the Age of Exploration? Your answer: the desire to find a sea route to Asia the desire t
Luden [163]

Answer:

Both a and b

Explanation:

The main motivation was a) to find a new sea route to Asia, because after the Ottoman Empire took control of Constantinople in 1453, it became harder for Western European countries to trade with Asia through the East, so they began to look for alternatives through the west.

However, b) also became a motivation. Christianity was deeply rooted in political power by the time, and the advancement of Christianity not only made the Church more powerful, but the governments as well.
