Answer:

Imagine for a second that you're a Freshman in highschool. You decide to smoke weed to help with anxiety and general unhappiness. You forget you have some on you when an SRO searches you. Maybe you're white and are more likely to get off with a warning. Maybe you're black and end up facing criminal charges. Students who face criminal charges have an increase in their likelihood of dropping out. Of all of the men in federal and state prisons, 80% do not have a high school diploma. There is a direct correlation and causation with a lack of high school education and incarceration. According to The Hamilton Project, there is roughly a 70% chance that an African-American man without his high school diploma will be imprisoned by his mid-thirties. You cannot attend college if you're in prison. But maybe you don't face criminal charges. That time. You can still have a record, and that will directly impact how SROs treat you and whether or not a college admissions officer thinks you have "good character".

write two or four sentences that expose the pros and cons of shorter and longer term for your school legislature.
zavuch27 [327]

A good side of the short term is that those who

are representing will have more focus on the work they are responsible for and

will not lose motivation. Another aspect I that with the shorter term more

people will have the opportunity to participate in administration bringing out

new ideas and innovations competing and trying to show the best in the time. A

negative side is that sometime someone can commit mistake which they want to

rectify but cannot due to short term which can be a plus point for long term.

Please i need help writing a five paragraph essay about the United States due today !!!!!
Anna [14]

Hi my dear friend,

The United States of America

Founded under the concept of a Republic (a government without a monarch, who’s elected representatives are responsible to the governed) the founding fathers some 235 years ago set out declare its independence and establish a new nation claiming their own sovereignty and rejecting any allegiances to the British Monarch. This of course sparked the Revolutionary War in April of 1775 that lasted until September of 1783.

I am amazed that 38 men and later others could during a time of war come together and develop governing rules that would create the greatest (not perfect) nation in modern times. These men had known just how over reaching most government in the world had become and intended to prevent that from

The Senate on the other hand is straight forward with two Senators for each state, elected in a state wide election.

The House has the sole Power of Impeachment, and is the origination site for all bills to raise revenues. The Senate has sole power to try all impeachments. The other powers of Congress are outlined in section 8 of Article I of which taxes, coining money the power to raise Armies and maintain a Navy and the power to declare war are the most notable.

All votes by either House on any question shall be by Yeas and Nays and as such be entered into that Houses Journal. All legislation must pass both Houses be for going to the President for his approval/signature and before becoming law. This in it’s self is a significant check and balance within the legislative branch. However the use of deeming a bill passed rather than a recorded vote has significantly eroded these checks as well as the confidence of the electorate.

~Thank you
