Why is Washington DC not represented in congress?

History
1 answer:
Studentka2010 [4]2 years ago
4 0

As the federal capital, the District of Columbia is a special federal district, not a state, and therefore does not have voting representation in Congress. The Constitution grants Congress exclusive jurisdiction over the District in "all cases whatsoever". ... D.C. residents have no representation in the Senate.

According to this chart, how was Great Britain benefiting from its African colonies?
HACTEHA [7]

Answer: The exploitation of natural and ore resources and the slave trade.

Explanation:

The British had several colonies in the territory of Africa, and some of the most significant settlements are Gambia, Sierra Leone, Ghana. The British appropriated all the economy of the colonized areas. They used the natural and mineral resources of the conquered countries. Indigenous people worked for them, sending raw materials to Europe and Africa because there was more to the price. In the nineteenth century, the slave trade intensified so that a large number of the African population were victims of the slave trade. Large quantities of gold have been exploited from Africa to their home country, which is one of the most valuable resources the British have exported from Africa.

What do you think about the guardianship policy that was in Saudi Arabia? Please write 4 sentences or more explaining the policy
Juli2301 [7.4K]

Answer:

In my opinion, I think that it is unfair to the women in Saudi Arabia because they have to depend on a man to make decisions. Not just that, this policy happens for the woman's whole life. I think that women should have an open mindset and make decisions just like men. They should be seen as equal and not distinct just because of different body parts. This stereotype in my opinion is very wrong because we are all equal and same no matter what gender.

“A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall
solniwko [45]

“That the subjects . . . may have arms for their defense” is the right listed in the English Bill of Rights and is the basis for the Second Amendment to the US Constitution.

<h3>What the second amendment ensures?</h3>

The Second Amendment of the US Constitution reads: "A nicely regulated Militia, being vital to the safety of a free State, the rights of the humans to preserve and endure Arms, shall now no longer be infringed."

The amendment was created in more hostile times to guarantee people and states' right to self-defense, and it enables US residents to keep and bear arms for such purposes.

The missing information in the question is given below:

“that levying money for or to the use of the Crown . . . without grant of Parliament . . . is illegal” “that it is the right of the subjects to petition the king” “That the raising or keeping a standing army . . . unless it is with consent of Parliament, is against law” “That the subjects . . . may have arms for their defense”

Thus, “That the subjects . . . may have arms for their defense” is the right listed in the English Bill of Rights and is the basis for the Second Amendment to the US Constitution.
