Kyrgyz State National University THE GOVIlebaev Emil Kasymov Maksat Bishkek 2001 Introduction In July 1780 I had sent to America an expeditionary force of 6,000 men under the Comte Jean de Rochambeau.In addition, the French fleet harassed British shipping and prevented reinforcement and resuppi of British forces in Virginia by a British fleet sailing from New York City. French and American armies and navies, totaling 18,000 men, parried with Cornwallis all through the summer and into the fall. Finally, on October 19, 17B1, after being trapped at Yorktown near the mouth of Chesa-peake Bay, Cornwallis surrendered his army of 8,000 British soldiers. Although Cornwallis s defeat did not immediately end the war - which would drag on inconclusively for almost two more years - a new British government decided to pursue peace negotiations in Paris in early 1782, with the American side represented by Benjamin Franklin, John Adams and John Jay. On April 15, 1783, Congress approved the final treaty, and Great Britain and its former colonies signed it on September 3. Known as the Treaty of Paris, the peace settlement acknowledged the independence, freedom and sovereignty of the 13 former colonies, now states, to which Great Britain granted the territory west to the Mississippi River, north to Canada and south to Florida, which was returned to Spain. The fledgling colonies that Richard Henry Lee had spoken of more than seven years before, had finally become free and independent states.

The task of knitting together a nation yet remained.

CONSTITUTIONDuring the war, the states had agreed to work together by sending representatives to a national congress patterned after the Congress of Delegates that conducted the war with England.

It would raise money to pay off debts of the war, establish a money system and deal with foreign nations in making treaties.The agreement that set up this plan of cooperation was called the Articles of Confederation. work together? They believed that the Congress needed more power.

The plan for the government was written in very simple language in a document called the Constitution of the United Slates. The Constitution set up a federal system with a strong central government.A federal system is one in which power is shared between a central authority and its constituent parts, with some rights reserved to each. The Constitution also called for the election of a national leader, or president.

Two main fears shared by most Americans one fear was that one person or group, including the majority, might become too powerful or be able to seize control of the country and create a tyranny, another fear was that the new central government might weaken or take away the power of the state governments to run their own affairs.To deal with this the Constitution specified exactly what power central government had and which power was reserved for the states.

Representatives of various states noted that the Constitution did not have any words guaranteeing the freedoms or the basic rights and privileges of citizens. Though the Convention delegates did not think it necessary to include such explicit guarantees, many people felt that they needed further written protection against tyranny. So, a Bill of Rights was added to the Constitution.The Bill of Rights The first 10 amendments to the Constitution and their purpose PROTECTIONS AFFORDED FUNDAMENTAL RIGHTS AND FREEDOMS Amendment 1 ITRARY MILITARY ACTION Amendment 2 Right to bear arms and maintain state militias National Guard . Amendment 3 Troops may not be quartered in homes in peacetime. PROTECTION AGAINST ARBITRARY POLICE AND COURT ACTION Amendment 4 No unreasonable searches or seizures.

Amendment 5 Grand jury indictment required to prosecute a person for a serious crime. No double jeopardy - being tried twice for the same offence.

Forcing a person to testify against himself or herself prohibited. No loss of life, liberty or property without due process.Amendment 6 Right to speedy, public, impartial trial with defense counsel, and right to cross-examine witnesses. Amendment 7 Jury trials in civil suits where value exceeds 20 dollars. Amendment 8 No excessive bail or fines, no cruel and unusual punishments.

PROTECTION OF STATES RIIGHTS OF THE PEOPLE Amendment 9 Unlisted rights are not necessarily denied. Amendment 10 Powers not delegated to the United States or denied to states are reserved to the states or to the people.The Bill of Rights was ratified in1791, but its application as broadened significantly by the 14th Amendment of the Constitution, which was ratified in 1868. A key phrase in the 14th Amendment - nor shall any state deprive any person of life, liberty or property, without due process of law - has been interpreted by the Supreme Court as forbidding the states from violating most of the rights and freedoms protected by the Bill of Rights.

THE EXECUTIVE BRANCH At a time when all the major European states had hereditary monarchs, the idea of a president with a limited term of office was itself revolutionary.The Constitution vests the executive power in the president.

It also provides for the election of a vice president who succeeds to the presidency in case of the death, resignation or incapacitation of the president. While the Constitution spells out in some detail the duties and powers of the president, it does not delegate any specific executive powers to the vice president or to members of the presidential Cabinet or to other federal officials.Creation of a powerful unitary presidency was the source of some contention in the Constitutional Convention.

Several states had had experience with executive councils made up of several members, a system that had been followed with considerable success by the Swiss for some years. And Benjamin Franklin urged that a similar system be adopted by the United States. Moreover, many delegates, still smarting under the excesses of executive power wielded by the British king, were wary of a powerful presidency.Nonetheless, advocates of a single president-operating under strict checks and balances-carried the day. In addition to a right of succession, the vice president was made the presiding officer of the Senate.

A constitutional amendment adopted in 1967 amplifies the process of presidential succession. It describes the specific conditions under which the vice president is empowered to take over the office of president if the president should become incapacitated.It also provides for resumption of the office by the president in the event of his or her recovery.

In addition, the amendment enables the president to name a vice president, with congressional approval, when the second office is vacated.This 25th Amendment to the Constitution was put into practice twice in 1974 when Vice President Spiro T. Agnew resigned and was replaced by Gerald R. Ford and when, after President Richard Nixon s resignation, President Ford nominated and Congress confirmed former New York governor Nelson A. Rockefeller as vice president. The Constitution gives Congress the power to establish the order of succession after the vice president.

At present, in the event both the president and vice president vacate their offices, the speaker of the House of Representatives would assume the presidency.Next comes the president pro tempore of the Senate a senator elected by that body to preside in the absence of the vice president , and then Cabinet officers in designated order. The seat of government, which moved in 1800 to Washington, D.C. the District of Columbia , is a federal enclave on the eastern seaboard.

The White House, both residence and office of the president, is located there.Although land for the federal capital was ceded by the states of Maryland and Virginia, the present District of Columbia occupies only the area given by Maryland the Virginia sector, unused by the government for half a century, reverted to Virginia in 1846. THE PRESIDENCY TERM OF OFFICE Elected by the people, through the electoral college, to a four-year term limited to two terms.

SALARY 200,000 plus 50,000 allowance for expenses, and up to 100,000 tax-free for travel and official entertainment INAUGURATION January 20, following the November general election QUALIFICATIONS Native-born American citizen, at least 35 years old and at least 14 years a resident of the United States. CHIEF DUTY To protect the Constitution and enforce the laws made by the Congress.OTHER POWERS To recommend legislation to the Congress to call special sessions of the Congress to deliver messages to the Congress to veto bills to appoint federal judges to appoint heads of federal departments and agencies and other principal federal officials to appoint representatives to foreign countries to carry on official business with foreign nations to exercise the function of commander-in-chief of the armed forces to grant pardons for offenses against the United States.

The Constitution requires the president to be a native-born American citizen at least 35 years of age. Candidates for the presidency are chosen by political parties several months before the presidential election, which is held every four years in years divisible evenly by four on the first Tuesday after the first Monday in November.

The method of electing the president is peculiar to the American system.Although the names of the candidates appear on the ballots, technically the people of each state do not vote directly for the president and vice president . Instead, they select a slate of presidential electors, equal to the number of senators and representatives each state has in Congress.

The candidate with the highest number of votes in each state wins all the electoral votes of that state. The electors of all 50 states and the District of Columbia-a total of 538 persons-compose what is known as the Electoral College.Under the terms of the Constitution, the College never meets as a body. Instead, the electors gather in the state capitals shortly after the election and cast their votes for the candidate with the largest number of popular votes in their respective states.

To be successful, a candidate for the presidency must receive 270 votes.The Constitution stipulates that if no candidate has a majority, the decision shall be made by the House of Representatives, with all members from a state voting as a unit. In this event, each state and the District of Columbia would be allotted one vote only. The presidential term of four years begins on January 20 it was changed from March by the 20th Amendment, ratified in 1933 following a November election.

The president starts his or her official duties with an inauguration ceremony, traditionally held on the steps of the U.S. Capitol, where Congress meets . The president publicly takes an oath of office, which is traditionally administered by the chief justice of the United States.The words are prescribed in Article II of the Constitution do solemnly swear or affirm that I will faithfully execute the office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States.

The oath-taking ceremony is usually followed by an inaugural address in which the new president outlines the policies and plans of his or her administration. PRESIDENTIAL POWERS The office of President of the United States is one of the most powerful in the world.The president, the Constitution says, must take care that the laws be faithfully executed. To carry out this responsibility, he or she presides over the executive branch of the federal government-a vast organization numbering several million people-and in addition has important legislative and judicial powers.

LEGILATIVE POWERS Despite the Constitutional provision that all legislative powers shall be vested in the Congress, the president, as the chief formulator of public policy, has a major legislative role. The president can veto any bill passed by Congress and, unless two-thirds in each house vote to override the veto, the bill does not become law. Much of the legislation dealt with by Congress is drafted at the initiative of the executive branch.

In an annual and special messages to Congress, the president may propose legislation he or she believes is necessary.If Congress should adjourn without acting on those proposals, the president has the power to call it into special session.

But, beyond all this, the president, as head of a political party and as principal executive officer of the U.S. government, is in a position to influence public opinion and thereby to influence the course of legislation in Congress.To improve their working relationships with Congress, presidents in recent years have set up a Congressional Liaison Office in the White House. Presidential aides keep abreast of all important legislative activities and try to persuade senators and representatives of both parties to support administration policies.

JUDICIAL POWERS Among the president s constitutional powers is that of appointing important public officials presidential nomination of federal judges, including members of the Supreme Court, is subject to confirmation by the Senate. Another significant power is that of granting a full or conditional pardon to anyone convicted of breaking a federal law-except in a case of impeachment.The pardoning power has come to embrace the power to shorten prison terms and reduce fines.

EXECUTIVE POWERS Within the executive branch itself, the president has broad powers to manage national affairs and the workings of the federal government.The president can issue rules, regulations and instructions called executive orders, which have the binding force of law upon federal agencies. As commander-in-chief of the armed forces of the United States, the president may also call into federal service the state units of the National Guard. In times of war or national emergency, the Congress may grant the president even broader powers to manage the national economy and protect the security of the United States.

The president chooses the heads of all executive departments and agencies, together with hundreds of other high-ranking federal officials.The large majority of federal workers, however, are selected through the Civil Service system, in which appointment and promotion are based on ability and experience POWERS IN FOREIGN AFFAIRS Under the Constitution, the president is the federal official primarily responsible for the relations of the United States with foreign nations. Presidents appoint ambassadors, ministers and consuls-subject to confirmation by the Senate-and receive foreign ambassadors and other public officials.

With the secretary of state, the president manages all official contacts with foreign governments.On occasion, the president may personally participate in summit conferences where chiefs of state meet for direct consultation.

Thus, President Woodrow Wilson headed the American delegation to the Paris conference at the end of World War I President Franklin D. Roosevelt conferred with Allied leaders at sea, in Africa and in Asia during World War II and every president since Roosevelt has met with world statesmen to discuss economic and political issues, and to reach bilateral and multilateral agreements. Through the Department of State, the president is responsible for the protection of Americans abroad and of foreign nationals in the United States.

Presidents decide whether to recognize new nations and new governments, and negotiate treaties with other nations, which are binding on the United States when approved by two-thirds of the Senate. The president may also negotiate executive agreements with foreign powers that are not subject to Senate confirmation.CONSTRAINTS ON PRESIDENTIAL POWER Because of the vast array of presidential roles and responsibilities, coupled with a conspicuous presence on the national and international scene, political analysts have tended to place great emphasis on the president s powers.

Some have even spoken of the the imperial presidency, referring to the expanded role of the office that Franklin D. Roosevelt maintained during his term. One of the first sobering realities a new president discovers is an inherited bureaucratic structure which is difficult to manage and slow to change direction.

Power to appoint ex- tends only to some 3,000 people out of a civilian government work force of more than three million, most of whom are protected in their jobs by Civil Service regulations. The president finds that the machinery of government operates pretty much independently of presidential interventions, has done so through earlier administrations, and will continue to do so in the future.New presidents are immediately confronted with a backlog of decisions from the outgoing administration on issues that are often complex and unfamiliar.

They inherit a budget formulated and enacted into law long before they came to office, as well as major spending programs such as veterans benefits. Social Security payments and Medicare for the elderly , which are mandated by law and not subject to influence. In foreign affairs, presidents must conform with treaties and informal agreements negotiated by their predecessors.The happy euphoria of the post-election honeymoon quickly dissipates, and the new president discovers that Congress has become less cooperative and the media more critical. The president is forced to build at least temporary alliances among diverse, often antagonistic interests-economic, geographic, ethnic and ideological.

Compromises with Congress must be struck if any legislation is to be adopted. It is very easy to defeat a bill in Congress, lamented President John F. Kennedy.It is much more difficult to pass one. Despite these burdensome constraints, few presidents have turned down the chance to run for a second term of office.

Every president achieves at least some of his legislative goals and prevents by veto the enactment of other laws he believes not to be in the nation s best interests. The president s authority in the conduct of war and peace, including the negotiation of treaties, is substantial.Moreover, the president can use his unique position to articulate ideas and advocate policies, which then have a better chance of entering the public consciousness than those held by his political rivals.

When a president raises an issue, it inevitably becomes subject to public debate. A president s power and influence may be limited, but they are also greater than those of any other American, in or out of office.THE EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENTS The day-to-day enforcement and administration of federal laws is in the hands of the various executive departments, created by Congress to deal with specific areas of national and international affairs.

The heads of the departments, chosen by the president and approved by the Senate, form a council of advisers generally known as the president s Cabinet. In addition to 14 departments, there are a number of staff organizations grouped into the Executive Office of the President.These include the White House staff, the National Security Council, the Office of Management and Budget, the Council of Economic Advisers, the Office of the U.S. Trade Representative, and the Office of Science and Technology.

The Constitution makes no provision for a presidential Cabinet. It does provide that the president may ask opinions, in writing, from the principal officer in each of the executive departments on any subject in their area of responsibility, but it does not name the departments nor describe their duties. Similarly, there are no specific constitutional qualifications for service in the Cabinet.The Cabinet developed outside the Constitution as a matter of practical necessity, for even in George Washington s day it was an absolute impossibility for the president to discharge his duties without advice and assistance.

Cabinets are what any particular president makes them. Some presidents have relied heavily on them for advice, others lightly, and some few have largely ignored them. Whether or not Cabinet members act as advisers, they retain the responsibility for directing the activities of the government in specific areas of concern.

Each department has thousands of employees, with offices throughout the country as well as in Washington. The departments are divided into divisions, bureaus, offices and services, each with specific duties. THE CABINET All departments are headed by a secretary, except the Justice Department, which is headed by the attorney general.THE DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE Created in 1862 THE DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE Created in 1903.

DEPARTAMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES The Department of Health and Human Services HHS probably directly touches the lives of more Americans than any other federal agency.

Its largest component, the Social Security Administration, pools contributions from employers and employees to pay benefits to workers and their families who have retired, died or become disabled. Social Security contributions help pay medical bills for those 65 years and older as well, under a program called Medicare.

Through a separate program, called Medicaid, HHS provides grants to states to help pay the medical costs of the poor. HHS also administers a network of medical research facilities through the National Institutes of Health, and the Alcohol, Drug Abuse and Mental Health Administration.Other HHS agencies ensure the safety and effectiveness of the nation s food supply and drugs, work to prevent outbreaks of communicable diseases, and provide health services to the nation s American Indian and native Alaskan populations.

These are often called independent agencies, since they are not part of the executive departments. The nature and purpose of these agencies vary widely. Some are regulatory groups, with powers to supervise certain sectors of the economy. Others provide special services, either to the government or to the people.In most cases, the agencies have been created by Congress to deal with matters that have become too complex for the scope of ordinary legislation.

The Interstate Commerce Commission, for example, was established by Congress in 1887 to curb the growing power of the railroads. In recent years, however, a trend toward deregulation of the economy has altered the functions of many federal regulatory bodies.Among the most important independent agencies are the following action is the principal federal agency for administering domestic volunteer service programs to meet basic human needs, and to support the self-help efforts of poor individuals and communities.

The Board is vested with the power to prevent or remedy unfair labor practices and to safeguard employees rights to organize and determine through elections whether to have unions as their bargaining representative. the national science foundation was created to strengthen basic research and education in the sciences in the United States.

It grants funds for research and education programs to universities and other institutions, and coordinates the science information activities of the federal government. the office of national drug control policy, created in 1988 to raise the profile of the U.S. government s fight against illegal drugs, coordinates efforts of such agencies as the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration, the Customs Service and the Coast Guard. THE OFFICE OF PERSONNEL MANAGEMENT in 1979 assumed functions of the Civil Service Commission, which was created in 1883 to establish a merit system for government service and to eliminate politics from public appointments. The agency holds competitive examinations across the country to select qualified workers for over three million government posts.

It also sponsors training programs to increase the effectiveness of government employees. the peace corps, founded in 1961, trains volunteers to serve in foreign countries for two years.

Peace Corps volunteers, now working in more than 60 nations, assist in agricultural-rural development, small business, health, natural resources conservation and education. THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION was established to protect investors who buy stocks and bonds.

Federal laws require companies that plan to raise money by selling their own securities to file facts about their operations with the commission.

The commission has powers to prevent or punish fraud in the sale of securities, and is authorized to regulate stock exchanges. the small business administration lends money to small businesses, aids victims of floods and other natural disasters, and helps secure contracts for small businesses to supply goods and services to the federal government.

THE UNITED STATES AGENCY FOR INTERNATIONAL DEVELOPMENT USAID carries out economic assistance programs designed to help the people in developing countries develop their human and economic resources, increase their productive capacities, and improve the quality of human life. The USAID administrator also serves as director of the U.S. International Development Cooperation Agency, which serves as the focal point for U.S. participation in such organizations as the UN Children s Fund UNICEF , the Organization of American States OAS Technical Assistance Funds program, the World Bank Group, and along with the Department of Agriculture, the Food for Peace Program.

THE UNITED STATES ARMS CONTROL AND DISARMAMENT AGENCY is responsible for U.S. participation in international negotiations on arms limitation and disarmament.

It represents the United States on international arms control commissions and supports research on arms control and disarmament. THE UNITED STATES INFORMATION AGENCY USIA seeks to promote better understanding of the United States in other countries through the dissemination abroad of information about the nation, its people, culture and policies. USIA also administers a number of two-way educational and cultural exchange programs, such as the Fulbright Program, with foreign nations.It provides assistance to foreign press and television journalists covering the United States.

The Agency also advises the president and the various departments of the government on foreign opinion concerning U.S. policies and programs. the united states postal service is operated by an autonomous public corporation that replaced the Post Office Department in 1971. The Postal Service is responsible for the collection, transportation and delivery of the mails, and for the operation of thousands of local post offices across the country. It also provides international mail service through the Universal Postal Union and other agreements with foreign countries.

An independent Postal Rate Commission, also created in 1971, sets the rates for different classes of mail. THE LEGISLATIVE BRANCH A BICAMERAL CONGRESS Article I of the Constitution grants all legislative powers of the federal government to a Congress divided into two chambers. a Senate and a House of Representatives.The Senate, the smaller of the two, is composed of two members for each state as provided by the Constitution, Membership in the House is based on population and its size is therefore not specified in the Constitution.

For more than 100 years after the adoption of the Constitution, senators were not elected by direct vote of the people but were chosen by state legislatures. Senators were looked on as representatives of their home states.Their duty was to ensure that their states were treated equally in all legislation.

The 17th Amendment, adopted in 1913, provided for direct election of the Senate. The delegates to the Constitutional Convention reasoned that if two separate groups-one representing state governments and one representing the people-must both approve every proposed law, there would be little danger of Congress passing laws hurriedly or carelessly. One house could always check the other in the manner of the British Parliament.Passage of the 17th Amendment did not substantially alter this balance of power between the two houses.

While there was intense debate in the Convention over the makeup and powers of Congress, many delegates believed that the legislative branch would be relatively unimportant. A few believed that the Congress would concern itself largely with external affairs, leaving domestic matters to state and local governments.These views were clearly wide of the mark. The Congress has proved to be exceedingly active, with broad powers and authority in all matters of national concern.

While its strength vis-a-vis the executive branch has waxed and waned at different periods of American history, the Congress has never been impotent or a rubber stamp for presidential decisions.QUALIFICATIONS OF MEMBERS OF CONCRESS The Constitution requires that U.S. senators must be at least 30 years of age, citizens of the United States for at least nine years, and residents of the states from which they are elected. Members of the House of Representatives must be at least 25, citizens for seven years, and residents of the states which send them to Congress.

The states may set additional requirements for election to Congress, but the Constitution gives each house the power to determine the qualifications of its members. Each state is entitled to two senators.Thus, Rhode Island, the smallest state, with an area of about 3,156 square kilometers has the same senatorial representation as Alaska, the biggest state, with an area of some 1,524,640 square kilometers.

Wyoming, with 490,000 persons in 1987, has representation equal to that of California, with its 1987 population of 27,663,000. The total number of members of the House of Representatives has been determined by Congress. That number is then divided among the states according to their populations. Regardless of its population, every state is constitutionally guaranteed at least one member of the House of Representatives.At present, six states-Alaska, Delaware, North Dakota, South Dakota, Vermont and Wyoming-have only one representative.

On the other hand, six states have more than 20 representatives-California alone has 45. The Constitution provides for a national census each 10 years and a redistribution of House seats according to population shifts. Under the original constitutional provision, the number of representatives was to be no more than one for each 30,000 citizens.There were 65 members in the first House, and the number was increased to 106 after the first census.

Had the one-to-30,000 formula been adhered to permanently, population growth in the United States would have brought the total number of representatives to about 7,000. Instead, the formula has been adjusted over the years, and today the House is composed of 435 members, roughly one for each 530,000 persons in the United States.State legislatures divide the states into congressional districts, which must be substantially equal in population.

Every two years, the voters of each district choose a representative for Congress. Senators are chosen in statewide elections held in even-numbered years. The senatorial term is six years, and every two years one-third of the Senate stands for election. Hence, two-thirds of the senators are always persons with some legislative experience at the national level. It is theoretically possible for the House to be composed entirely of legislative novices.In practice, however, most members are reelected several times and the House, like the Senate, can always count on a core group of experienced legislators.

Since members of the House serve two-year terms, the life of a Congress is considered to be two years.The 20th Amendment provides that the Congress will meet in regular session each January 3, unless Congress fixes a different date. The Congress remains in session until its members vote to adjourn-usually late in the year. The president may call a special session when he or she thinks it necessary.

Sessions are held in the Capitol in Washington, D.C. POWERS OF THE HOUSE AND SENATE Each house of Congress has the power to introduce legislation on any subject except revenue bills, which must originate in the House of Representatives. The large states may thus appear to have more influence over the public purse than the small states. In practice, however, each house can vote against legislation passed by the other house.The Senate may disapprove a House revenue bill-or any bill, for that matter-or add amendments which change its nature.

In that event, a conference committee made up of members from both houses must work out a compromise acceptable to both sides before the bill becomes law. The Senate also has certain powers especially reserved to that body, including the authority to confirm presidential appointments of high officials and ambassadors of the federal government as well as authority to ratify all treaties by a two-thirds vote. Unfavorable action in either instance nullifies executive action.

In the case of impeachment of federal officials, the House has the sole right to bring charges of misconduct that can lead to an impeachment trial. The Senate has the sole power to try impeachment cases and to find officials guilty or not guilty. A finding of guilt results in the removal of the federal official from public office.The broad powers of the whole Congress are spelled out in the eighth section of the first article of the Constitution - to levy and collect taxes - to borrow money for the public treasury - to make rules and regulations governing commerce among the states and with foreign countries - to make uniform rules for the naturalization of foreign citizens - to coin money, state its value, and provide for the punishment of counterfeiters - to set the standards for weights and measures - to establish bankruptcy laws for the country as a whole - to establish post offices and post roads - to issue patents and copyrights - to set up a system of federal courts - to punish piracy - to declare war - to raise and support armies - to provide for a navy - to call out the militia to enforce federal laws, suppress lawlessness or repel invasions by foreign powers - to make all laws for the District of Columbia and - to make all laws necessary to enforce the Constitution.

A few of these powers are now outdated-the District of Columbia today is largely self-governing-but they remain in effect.

The 10th Amendment sets definite limits on congressional authority, by providing that powers not delegated to the national government are reserved to the states or to the people. In addition, the Constitution specifically forbids certain acts by Congress.

It may not - suspend the writ of habeas corpus, unless necessary in time of rebellion or invasion - pass laws which condemn persons for crimes or unlawful acts without a trial - pass any law which retroactively makes a specific act a crime - levy direct taxes on citizens, except on the basis of a census already taken - tax exports from any one state - give specially favorable treatment in commerce or taxation to the seaports of any state or to the vessels using them and - authorize any titles of nobility.

LITTLE LEGISLATURES A congressman once observed that Congress is a collection of committees that come together in a chamber periodically to approve one another s actions.That statement correctly identifies the standing and permanent committees that are the nerve centers of the U.S. Congress.

In a recent two-year session of Congress, for example, members proposed a total of I , 602 bills in the House and 4,080 in the Senate. For each of these bills, the committees responsible had to study, weigh arguments or and against, hear witnesses and debate changes, before the bills ever reached the House or Senate floors.Out of almost 5,000 measures introduced, only 664-fewer than six percent-were enacted into law. The Constitution does not specifically call for congressional committees.

As the nation grew, however, so did the need for investigating pending legislation more thoroughly.The committee system began in 1789, when House members found themselves bogged down in endless discussions of proposed new laws. The first committees dealt with Revolutionary War claims, post roads and territories, and trade with other countries. Throughout the years, committees have formed and disbanded in response to political, social and economic changes.

For example, there is no longer any need for a Revolutionary War claims committee, but both houses of Congress have a Veterans Affairs committee. Today, there are 22 standing committees in the House and 16 in the Senate, plus four joint permanent committees with members from both houses Library of Congress, printing, taxation and economics.In addition, each house can name special, or select, committees to study specific problems Because of an increase in workload, the standing committees have also spawned some 300 subcommittees.

Almost 25,000 persons help with research, information-gathering and analyses of problems and programs in Congress. Recently, during one week of hearings, committee and subcommittee members discussed topics ranging from financing of television broadcasting to the safety of nuclear plants to international commodity agreements.And what do ail these little legislatures actually do? After all the facts are gathered, the committee decides whether to report a new bill favorably or with a recommendation that it be passed with amendments.

Sometimes, the bill will be set aside, or tabled, which effectively ends its consideration. When bills are reported out of committee and passed by the full House or Senate, however, another committee goes into action, ironing out any differences between the House and Senate versions of the same bill. This conference committee, consisting of members of both houses, completes a bill to all members satisfaction, then sends it to the House and Senate floors for final discussion and a vote. If passed, the bill goes to the president for his signature.

Congressional committees are vital because they do the nuts-and-bolts job of weighing the proposals, hammering them into shape or killing them completely.They continue to play a large part in the preparation and consideration of laws that will help shape the United States in its third century.

Finance and Urban Affairs Budget Commerce, Science and Transportation Energy and Natural Resources Environment and Public Works Finance Foreign Relations Governmental Affairs Judiciary Labor and Human Resources Rules and Administration Small Business Veterans Affairs OFFICERS OF THE CONGRESS The Constitution provides that the vice president shall be president of the Senate.

He or she has no vote, except in the case of a tie. The Senate chooses a president pro tempore to preside when the vice president is absent. The House of Representatives chooses its own presiding officer-the speaker of the House. The speaker and the president pro tempore are always members of the political party with the largest representation in each house.At the beginning of each new Congress, members of the political parties select floor leaders and other officials to manage the flow of proposed legislation.

These officials, along with the presiding officers and committee chairmen, exercise strong influence over the making of laws. THE LAWMAK1NG PROCESS One of the major characteristics of the Congress is the dominant role committees play in its proceedings. Committees have assumed their present-day importance by evolution, not by constitutional design, since the Constitution makes no provision for their establishment.At present the Senate has 16 standing or permanent committees the House of Representatives has 22. Each specializes in specific areas of legislation foreign affairs, defense, banking, agriculture, commerce, appropriations and other fields.

Every bill introduced in either house is referred to a committee for study and recommendation.The committee may approve, revise, kill or ignore any measure referred to it. It is nearly impossible for a bill to reach the House or Senate floor without first winning committee approval. In the House, a petition to discharge a bill from a committee requires the signatures of 218 members in the Senate, a majority of all members is required.

In practice, such discharge motions only rarely receive the required support. The majority party in each house controls the committee process.Committee chairmen are selected by a caucus of party members or specially designated groups of members. Minority parties are proportionally represented on the committees according to their strength in each house.

Bills are introduced by a variety of methods. Some are drawn up by standing committees some by special committees created to deal with specific legislative issues and some may be suggested by the president or other executive officers. Citizens and organizations outside the Congress may suggest legislation to members, and individual members themselves may initiate bills.After introduction, bills are sent to designated committees which, in most cases, schedule a series of public hearings to permit presentation of views by persons who support or oppose the legislation.

The hearing process, which can last several weeks or months, opens the legislative process to public participation. One virtue of the committee system is that it permits members of Congress and their staffs to amass a considerable degree of expertise in various legislative fields.In the early days of the republic, when the population was small and the duties of the federal government narrowly circumscribed, such expertise was not as important.

Each congressman was a generalist and dealt knowledgeably with all fields of interest. The complexity of national life today calls for special knowledge, which means that elected representatives often acquire expertise in one or two areas of public policy. When a committee has acted favorably on a bill, the proposed legislation is then sent to the floor for open debate. In the Senate, the rules permit virtually unlimited debate.In the House, because of the large number of members, the Rules Committee usually sets limits.

When debate is ended, members vote either to approve the bill, defeat it, table it-which means setting it aside and is tantamount to defeat-or return it to committee. A bill passed by one house is sent to the other for action. If the bill is amended by the second house, a conference committee composed of members of both houses attempts to reconcile the differences.Once passed by both houses, the bill is sent to the president, for constitutionally the president must act on a bill for it to become law. The president has the option of signing the bill-by which it becomes law-or vetoing it. A bill vetoed by the president must be reapproved by a two-thirds vote of both houses to become law. The president may also refuse either to sign or veto a bill. In that case, the bill becomes law without his signature 10 days after it reaches him not counting Sundays . The single exception to this rule is when Congress adjourns after sending a bill to the president and before the 10-day period has expired his refusal to take any action then negates the bill-a process known as the pocket veto. CONGRESSIONAL POWERS OF INVESTIGATION One of the most important nonlegislative functions of the Congress is the power.
