The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although you forgot to include the options of the question, we can answer the following.

The Pendleton Civil Service Act provided a disconnection from "grafting" by awarding government jobs through Patronage to political bosses.

Before the enactment of the Pendleton Civil Service Act, many jobs in the government were granted to political campaign supporters, party members, or friends of the winning candidate.

So US President Chester A. Arthur signed the act into law on January 16. 1883. From then on, the act required that all positions opened in the federal government should be to the people that nad the best professional merits, capacity, and experience. Not like before, due to political patronage, to friends or supporters.

A bill on the president's desk hasn't been touched in 10 days, does it become a law?
andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

A bill becomes law if signed by the President or if not signed within 10 days and Congress is in session. If Congress adjourns before the 10 days and the President has not signed the bill then it does not become law ("Pocket Veto.") ... If the veto of the bill is overridden in both chambers then it becomes law.

hope this helps! <3

Describe the lives/roles of women before the 19th Amendment .
erastovalidia [21]

Answer:

answer in social, economic, and political

Explanation:

Social: During the early 1800s, the idea of equality became more prominent and social conditions for women began to change, which led to the birth of the Women's Suffrage Movement. Although women were still considered weaker than men, they started to receive more educational opportunities. For instance, by the end of the 19th century the number of women students increased to more than one third than before. Also, the foundation of colleges for women as well as events at women’s rights conventions challenged society’s views on women’s traditional roles. Higher education was broadened by the rise of women's colleges and the admission of women to regular colleges and universities. In the 1800s women were stuck in the Cult of Domesticity.

Economic: As for work, women were discriminated against. Many people believed that a women's place was in the home and that cooking, cleaning, and taking care of the family was their job. In the early 19th century, the jobs most readily available to women were domestic and factory work. For an example, during the first half of the nineteenth century teaching became a respectable job for middle-class women. Also, women started working in factories as seamstresses in places like the Lowell Mills.

Political: Women began to start taking part in reform movements in the 1800's, which gave them little involvement in politics. As a result, women began to wonder why they were not also allowed to vote. The first major public appeal for women's suffrage came in 1848 when Lucretia Mott and Elizabeth Cady Stanton called for a women's rights convention in Seneca Falls, New York. At the convention they created the Declaration of Sentiments. The Declaration of Sentiments demanded for women to have equal rights to men in education, property, voting, and other issues.
