Help! Need ideas for an essay about why Columbus day should be abolished!
denis-greek [22]

What action did the NAACP take against lynching in the 1920s?
alex41 [277]

Hamilton's next objective was to create a Bank of the United States, modeled after the Bank of England. A national bank would collect taxes, hold government funds, and make loans to the government and borrowers. One criticism directed against the bank was "unrepublican"--it would encourage speculation and corruption. The bank was also opposed on constitutional grounds. Adopting a position known as "strict constructionism," Thomas Jefferson and James Madison charged that a national bank was unconstitutional since the Constitution did not specifically give Congress the power to create a bank.

Hamilton responded to the charge that a bank was unconstitutional by formulating the doctrine of "implied powers." He argued that Congress had the power to create a bank because the Constitution granted the federal government authority to do anything "necessary and proper" to carry out its constitutional functions (in this case its fiscal duties).

In 1791, Congress passed a bill creating a national bank for a term of 20 years, leaving the question of the bank's constitutionality up to President Washington. The president reluctantly decided to sign the measure out of a conviction that a bank was necessary for the nation's financial well-being.

APUSH Period 8 : 1945-1980 While the Gulf of Tonkin resolution essentially gave the president a "blank check", this act limited
riadik2000 [5.3K]

The correct answer is "War Powers Act".

Also known as The War Powers resolution of 1973, it is a federal law that intends to limit the president's power to commit to an armed conflict without the consent of Congress.

The Law states that in order to declare war on a foreign nation, the President must get a "statutory authorization" from Congress. This also includes the scenario where sovereign territory has gone under attack by foreign powers.

The resolution requires the President to notify Congress within 48 hours of committing armed forces to engage in military activity.
