By 1774, how did the germans of northampton county, pennsylvania, react to talks of liberty
Oxana [17]

Germans represented an important group in the demography of Pennsylvania during the second part of the 18th century. Throughout these years, they gradually started to increase their involving in politics, occupying more seats in the Pennsylvania Assembly in the period of 1758 to 1775.

Once the rumors of independence started appearing, they openly supported these ideas, as they had their own religious beliefs (Lutheran Church) that differed from those of the British. This motivation was translated to their political efforts and further participation in the war.

Both the House and the Senate have passed bills regulating the food packing Industry. The bills are very different. What happens
sasho [114]

Answer: The Bill Is a Law

If a bill has passed in both the U.S. House of Representatives and the U.S. Senate and has been approved by the President, or if a presidential veto has been overridden, the bill becomes a law and is enforced by the government.

If the bill passes by simple majority (218 of 435), the bill moves to the Senate. In the Senate, the bill is assigned to another committee and, if released, debated and voted on. Finally, a conference committee made of House and Senate members works out any differences between the House and Senate versions of the bill.

To become a law the bill must be approved by both the U.S. House of Representatives and the U.S. Senate and requires the Presidents approval. There are two different types of bills, private-bills that affect a specific individual and public-bills that affect the general public.

Sometimes, the resolution of differences between the House and Senate proposals may instead be accomplished through a conference committee. A conference committee is a temporary committee formed in relation to a specific bill; its task is to negotiate a proposal that can be agreed to by both chambers.

After both the House and Senate have approved a bill in identical form, the bill is sent to the President. If the President approves of the legislation, it is signed and becomes law. If the President takes no action for ten days while Congress is in session, the bill automatically becomes law.

What is your interpretation of the Fifteenth Amendment?
Mazyrski [523]

Answer:

all citizens may be able to vote regardless of colour or social status and the government does not have the authority to change this (shall not be denied or abridged by the United States), but this does not include women as they do not strictly mention gender. Previous condition of servitude likely refers to how slavery was abolished and that former slaves shall also have the voting right.

Explanation:

"The right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any state on account of race, color, or <em>previous condition of servitude</em>."
