President Eisenhower vetoed the Federal-Aid Highway Act (1956), insisting that it was too costly.
O True
O False
Answer:
False
Explanation:
President Dwight D. Eisenhower has singed the bill as per which the Federal Aid Highway Act of 1956 was enacted. He himself increased the amount of the financial aid under this act from $700 million per year to $900 million per year. If the President would have felt that it is too costly, then he would not have increased the financial aid value from $700 million per year to $900 million per year.
Hence, the give statement is False.
The 1965 Voting Rights Act enabled the Justice Department, under certain circumstances, to send federal officers into communities to register voters. This policy is which of the following:Group of answer choicesinconsistent with Madison's proposed national veto over objectionable state lawsunconstitutional pursuant to the Fourteenth Amendmentan ineffective solution to an unsolvable problemperfectly consistent with Madison's proposed national veto over objectionable state laws
Answer: perfectly consistent with Madison's proposed national veto over objectionable state laws
Explanation:
James Madison believed that the Federal Government through Congress, should have the right to veto objectionable state laws so that states would not get away with doing whatever they want in areas the Constitution was lacking.
The action by the 1965 Voting Rights Act described above is in line with this veto suggestion because it was passed mainly with the Southern States as these states had been limiting the rights of Black people to vote through some state legislature and intimidation. Justice officers being allowed to go into communities to register voters was to counteract this.

According to the author, which of the following events influenced the
development of the Harlem Renaissance? *
1.The emancipation of enslaved African Americans
2.African American participation in World War I
3.African Americans obtaining the right to vote
4.The Great Depression
Answer:
2. African American participation in World War I
Explanation:
In the passage, the speaker describes how the "defeat of the kaiser" boosted spirits and raised optimism, and the kaiser was the leader of Germany during WWI.
The Harlem Renaissance arose from the changes that had occurred in the African-American community after slavery's abolition, such as the development of communities in the North.
What was the involvement of African-Americans in World War I?African American artists, performers, and writers were at the forefront of the fight against intellectual and creative racism. Between the wars, and even amid the hardships of the Significant Depression, there was a great surge of African American cultural expression known as the "Harlem Renaissance."
Paintings, paintings, classical music, jazz, blues, poetry, books, plays, and dance were all popular during this time period and received international renown. However, artistic and intellectual excellence did not result in blacks achieving political, economic, and educational equality with whites. Racism remained a potent influence in American society.
Thus, Option 2 is the correct event that influenced the development of the Harlem Renaissance.

Can you please help me on this
Answer:
The plague had an important effect on the relationship between the lords who owned much of the land in Europe and the peasants who worked for the lords.
