The House of Representatives

Question 6 • MI-Government/Civics 2023

Which of these is an exclusive power of the House of Representatives?

Answer
A
to amend a bill
B
to impeach a federal employee
C
to check the power of the president
D
to review a tax bill the Senate has proposed

Explanation

The House of Representatives has the exclusive power to impeach federal officials, meaning it can formally accuse them of misconduct. The Senate then holds the trial and decides whether to remove the official. Amending bills and checking the president’s power are not exclusive to the House, and revenue bills must originate in the House rather than the Senate.
