Explanation:

In the landmark civil rights case Hernandez v. Texas, the United States Supreme Court expanded human rights to Mexican Americans.

Peter Hernandez, a Mexican-American farm worker, was found guilty of the cold-blooded murder of Joe Espinosa in a bar in Edna, Texas, in 1951. Hernandez's pro bono defence team, which included Gustavo C. Garcia, challenged the decision, claiming that he was discriminated against because the jury that acquitted him did not include any Mexicans. They hoped to end "the widespread removal of people of Mexican descent from all forms of jury service in at least seventy counties in Texas," as they put it. They claimed that Hernandez had the right to a jury trial under the 14th Amendment, but the 14th Amendment was a special civil rights amendment at the time.

The Ganges River begins high in the Himalayan Mountains and flows 1600 miles through India and Bangladesh to the Bay of Bengal. This river provides water and transportation for the over 400 million people who live in its river valley. It is known as “Mother Ganges.” In spite of the river’s importance and its place in the spiritual lives of Indians, the quality of the water has become poor. Chemicals used in fertilizer and industry are washed into the river every day. Human and animal waste also foul the river. The bodies of dead animals as well as the cremated remains of human beings (bodies that are burned after death and whose ashes are scattered in the river) regularly float down the river. In spite of this, many Indians bathe in the Ganges. They also use the water for drinking and cooking. Cities along the Ganges have the highest rates of water-borne diseases (diseases found in drinking water) of any who live in India.

Step 4: Subcommittee review of the bill. ...
Step 5: Committee mark up of the bill. ...
Step 6: Voting by the full chamber on the bill. ...
Step 7: Referral of the bill to the other chamber. ...
Step 8: The bill goes to the president.
member of the House of Representatives or the Senate can introduce a bill. The member who introduces the bill is called the sponsor. Anyone can co-sponsor a bill, including members from different political parties.

Our Voices
Strong Families New Mexico meets with potential sponsors to share our stories and helps inform the development of legislation as it is being created.
2. SEND TO COMMITTEE
Once introduced, a bill gets assigned a number and sent to a committee. Currently, the House of Representatives has 16 committees and the Senate has 9 committees. The number of committees may change depending on elected leadership.

3. COMMITTEE HEARS THE BILL
Committees study the bill and hold hearings where people testify in support of or in opposition to the bill. Members of the committee can suggest changes (called amendments) to the bill for the committee to consider.

After listening to public and expert testimony and proposed amendments, the committee will vote on the bill. If more than half of the committee members support the bill, it moves on to the next step. If the committee does not vote on the bill or the bill discussion is tabled in committee, the bill cannot move on. When this happens it is called “killing the bill.”

Our Voices
SFNM leaders and partners share their stories by testifying at committee hearings or participate in days of action. Can’t make it to the capitol? Strong Families New Mexico supporters can call and/or email the members of the committee to express their support or share their concerns.
4. FLOOR ACTION
A bill that is sent by committee(s) with a “do pass” or “do not pass” recommendation returns to the chamber (House or Senate) where it is introduced for an up or down vote. This is called the third reading. During the third reading, the bill enters final debate on the full floor and amendments are discussed and voted on. Members vote to pass or not to pass the bill. Bills that do not pass on the third reading do not move on in the process.

If a bill passes in the House of Representatives, it goes through a similar process in the Senate. Before a bill becomes law, it must be approved by both chambers of the legislature. The bill must pass with the same wording in the House of Representatives and the Senate before it can go to the Governor for approval. If the Senate amends a House bill, or vice versa, the bill must go back to the original chamber and be approved with the amendments before proceeding. Sometimes, bills with different amendments end up in a conference committee where a small group of members from each chamber try to work out the differences.

Our Voices
When a bill is being considered on the chamber floor, Strong Families leaders and partners participate in days of action, calling or visiting legislators to express their support or opposition to a bill. We may also show up at the Capitol building on the day of a floor vote to rally, speak to the media, and do in-person storytelling with legislators.
5. GOVERNOR’S DESK
If the bill passes both chambers, it goes to the Governor for approval. There are three possible outcomes.

Governor signs the bill.
Governor vetoes (or rejects) the bill. The House of Representatives and Senate may override the veto by a two-thirds vote of each chamber.
Governor takes no action. If the Governor does not sign or veto the bill by the end of the 20-day period, the bill is killed by what is called a “pocket veto.”
Our Voices
While a bill is waiting for the Governor to make a decision, the SFNM network calls the Governor’s office, sends emails, and participates in social media campaigns to urge the Governor to sign or veto the bill. Most bills that become laws take effect 90 days after the end of the legislative session, unless otherwise specified.

Question 4 options:
True
False

Answers

Answer:

False

Explanation:

It is false because a penal colony or exile colony is a settlement used to exile prisoners and separate them from the general population by placing them in a remote location, often an island or distant colonial territory. Although the term can be used to refer to a correctional facility located in a remote location it is more commonly used to refer to communities of prisoners overseen by wardens or governors having absolute authority.

Historically penal colonies have often been used for penal labour in an economically underdeveloped part of a state's (usually colonial) territories, and on a far larger scale than a prison farm.
