2. Details
The legislative branch will maintain its role in
government, but there will not be two congresses.
Instead of having the house of representatives and
the Senate we will only have one congress.
There will be two congressmen representing each
town.
There are twenty three towns so the Congress will
have forty six congressmen.
3. Powers
The congress will debate whether to pass certain
Bills to be made into laws.
Congress also has power to amend the constitution if
they feel necessary.
Congress has the power to coin money and collect
taxes. They will also regulate commerce.
When it come to national defense Congress has the
responsibility to raise and maintain an army, but
also has the power to declare war.
4. Why One Congress?
Our task force decided to have one congress instead
of two because having just one congress would be
more efficient instead of having two separate
congresses that have to agree on a certain topic.
Having one congress will also allow all of the towns
in congress to have an equal say on important
decisions instead of having the larger towns have
more power.
