The correct answer to this open question is the following.
Unfortunately, you did not mention the name of the text. Without the name of the text, we do not know what is included there.
However, trying to help you, we can comment on the following.
There is a text titled "The Voting Rights Act of 1965." If that is the case, we can say the following.
The author of this text refers to that legislation passed in the mid-sixties and says that there are laws that were passed to limit American minorities to exert their vote in elections. Of course, the author not only refers to African Americans, but to Hispanic people or Asian people.
In the case of African Americans, the author includes a series of legislation that had been passed in different states to limit their civil rights despite federal legislation.
The role is at a 60 degree angle
The correct answer is B) The power to ratify changes to the Constitution.
The federal government is given the ability to tax citizens multiple times. This includes Article 1 Section 8 of the US Constitution and the 16th amendment (which establishes the federal income tax).
The power to regulate interstate commerce is also in Article 1 Section 8 of the US Constitution. This was further reinforced by the Supreme Court case Gibbons vs. Ogden.
The US Constitution also explicitly gives the right to sign treaties to the federal government.
This is why B can be the only correct answer.
