The correct answer is A) By protecting same-sex marriages under the equal protection clause.

The Equal Protection clause is part of the 14th amendment. This amendment ensures that the law applies equally to all US citizens. It was decided that same-sex marriages were protected by the constitution by the Supreme Court case Obergefell vs. Hodges (2015). This was a huge advancement in obtaining equal rights for members of the LGBTQ community.

What factors contributed to the type of economy that characterized the New South?
Marat540 [252]

Answer:

Henry Grady, an Atlanta editor of the news media, used the New South. The concept of the New South was that after the Civil War, the region needed to develop and diversify its economy.

Explanation:

More investments were being sought in the region for railways, telegraphs, and canals. While this contributed to the economy, after the civil war, the area was still largely agricultural and depleted. The region was not subject to the same level of immigration as the North, and potential workers were devastated during the civil war.

The region also generated more opportunities for public education; the number of children to read and write increased by the turn of the century.

The New South is that, at least on paper, the former slaves had more rights. Although numerous towns passed regulations that made it a crime to leave or travel an Afro American, many former slaves were permitted to be active in these new industries.

1. What role does the legislative branch (Congress) play in passing a law?
vovikov84 [41]
1. The legislative branch of government (Congress) examines a proposed bill and can either reject it or vote to make it into a law.

2. When Congress votes in favor of making a bill into law, the Executive Branch of government (The President) signs it into law. If the President does not approve of the bill, he/she can veto it, and send recommendations to Congress to amend the bill. 

If Congress approves a bill by 2/3 or more of both the house and senate, it shall become law, and the President cannot veto it.

3. The Judicial Branch of government (The Supreme Court) interprets laws and upholds the Constitution. When disagreements occur between the legislative and executive branches of government, the judicial branch has the power to resolve the disagreement by interpreting the law in view of existing laws and the Constitution.

4. The varying roles of the three branches of government provide a system of checks and balances so that no branch of government can abuse power or authority over the governed.
