Check all that applyCollecting the money the government needs in order to operateBringing charges against officials to remove them from officeReviewing the tax bills that the Senate has proposedChoosing a president if the Electoral College results in a tieCreating bills that raise funds for government services

Answer
A
Collecting the money the government needs in order to operate
B
Bringing charges against officials to remove them from office
C
Reviewing the tax bills that the Senate has proposed
D
Choosing a president if the Electoral College results in a tie
E
Creating bills that raise funds for government services

Explanation

The House has several powers the Senate does not: it brings impeachment charges against officials, originates bills for raising revenue, and chooses the president if no candidate wins an Electoral College majority. So bringing charges (B), choosing a president after a tie in the Electoral College (D), and creating bills that raise funds (E) are correct. The House does not itself collect the government’s money, and revenue bills begin in the House rather than being proposed by the Senate.
