Which of the following would not be within the powers of Congress according to the Constitution?
a. Creating a law that raises taxes to build a bridge.
b.Remove the President from office for committing a crime.
c. Make treaties with foreign countries.

Respuesta :

Answer: c. Make treaties with foreign countries.

Explanation:

The executive branch makes negotiations and treaties with foreign countries, and then the Senate votes on whether to accept those treaties. This is an example of the legislative branch having a check on the executive branch. Despite this check, the Congress does not directly make treaties with foreign countries. So this is why choice C is the answer.

Congress has the power to raise and create new taxes, so choice A is false. Congress also has the power to apply impeachment to remove a President from office, so choice B is false as well.
