2) The State Constitution Only\n\nhttp://www.usconstitution.net/constfaq_a4.html#Q67\n\nQ67. "Is there anything in the U.S. Constitution that guarantees its citizens an education? My uncle is being forced to pay for summer school for his children by the NYC Board of Education. Unless he pays, my cousins are going to have to repeat the grade. I see this as an attack on the lower classes, who will obviously have a problem paying for their 'public school' education."\n\nA. There is no constitutional right to an education. A state constitution may include such a right, but I doubt that being required to pay for education would be considered a violation of that right. The problem with something like your uncle's situation is that, to be blunt, if a child does not apply himself enough during the school year to pass from one grade to the next, is it the school's responsibility to pay for that child to have remedial classes to move along? I suspect not; after all, if your uncle does not wish to pay, the kids could just repeat the grade for free.\n\nIt would depend upon which State is referred to in your question, but I'm willing to bet that nearly every State constitution provides for public education through the Legislative Branch.\n\nHere is a link to the Kansas Constitution (where I live) that authorizes the legislature to provide for education.\nhttp://skyways.lib.ks.us/KSL/ref/constitution/art6.html

You need to get ahold of the county building department that the school is going to be in to get an answer to this question. If they don't have it, then you need to go to the State Department of Education - Construction Division.

The legislative branch creates legislation and the executive branch enforces it.

the US government is separated into three branches of goverment that theoretically ensure a balance of power.  These branches are the legistislature (house & senate), exectutive (president) and the judicial (supreme court).  \n\nEach branch is designed to work independent of one another, though at the same time work with each other to create laws, implement policy and to interpret the constitution through the judicial process. \n\nA governor is similar to the executive branch, but for a state. \n\nCongressman are those who are elected to the House of Representatives and Senators are those who are elected to the Senate.  Each state is represented by 2 senators for a total of 100.  The number of representatives from each state to the House is determined by its population.  The House and Senate were both created to ensure equal representation of all states, without favoring larger states.\n\nThe House of Representatives writes legistlation (laws).  But before they are made into laws, the Senate must vote on a 51-49 majority to pass it into law and the president must sign the law to become official. \n\nHope this helps!

A legislation is a act decision made by the legislative branch (congress).\n\nIt can be poposed by just about anyone, but it usually takes a powerful voice to be heard. It must first be passed by the house of repesentatives, and then onto the Senate.

Each of the 50 states can send 2 Senators to congress.  This allows each state equal say in the political process\n\nEach state sends a number of Representatives to the House, the other half of Congress, to represent them.  The thing is, Representatives in the House correlate with the population of each state, so a more populous state has more Representatives than a less populous state.\n\nIt all arose from debate about whether the states should have equal say in the political process or whether it should depend on population.  Our congress is a compromise, the Senate was developed so each state has an equal say, the House for those who thought population should determine how much say each state has, dependent upon population.\n\nNeither has ministries, they simply retain the legislative power, with set rules governing how each half of Congress interacts with each other in making laws.  Each half retains specific powers, and often they share powers as well.  Congress, the House and Senate combined, is simply one of 3 branches of government.  \n\nIf you have any more questions my email is open, so simply ask, and I'll be happy to let you know!

Yes indeed. "Legislative" means the ones who actually pass the laws ("legis" -- from the Latin for law), while "Executive" means the ones who execute (enforce) them, and "judicial" means the ones who judge them.  So Congress (the House of Representatives) and the Senate are both part of the legislative branch.

By the Constitution of the United States of America, which made provisions for three branches of government:  judicial, legislative and executive.

This is actually a very involved and complex question.  The powers of the executive also tend to vary with who is in power, and what his approval ratings are at that time.  Over all i'd say the legislative branch retains the most power.  Legislation is technically proposed exclusively by the legislative, with an additional power of over riding a veto with a 2/3rd vote.  In reality the executive branch has a LOT of power in guiding national platforms and legislation.

You mean checks and balances?  The government is divided into three branches: legislative (the congress; they make the laws), executive (president, governors, mayors, etc, they enact the laws), and judicial (the courts; interpret and enforce the laws).  They keep each other in line through the systems of checks and balances because each branch can make any actions of the other two null and void.\n\nFor instance, let's say Congress passes a law, but the President doesn't like it, so he vetos it.  The Congress can still have the law enacted by passing the law again with a higher vote count (I think it has to be 2/3 majority).  But the courts can find the law to be unconstitutional, and throw it out.  Congress can then amend the Constitution to make the law constitutional, and on and on and round and round....\n\nThat's a brief description of how our government keeps any one person or body from getting too much power.
