How does this e-mail show how an individual can influence government? “Dear Cynthia Citizen,

Thank you for your letter about your flooded neighborhood. I had no idea your street flooded with every rainstorm! Certainly I can see why that is a problem for you and your neighbors. I have the issue set for discussion at the next county meeting on Tuesday the 24th. If possible, I know it would help the other council members understand the problem if you and/or your neighbors could come speak about it. Bring pictures if you have any.

Sincerely,

Chris Carrod

County Council Member”

A. Council Member Carrod explains that the citizen must have help from her neighbors if she expects it back.

B. Ms. Citizen expects that her council member will pay himself for repairs to the streets in her neighborhood.

D. Ms. Citizen sent her elected official a letter about her flooding problem, and now the council will discuss it.

there are many ways of getting involved on your local party. attached you will find the brochure that describes some ideas: go ahead and visit your local hq, become a volunteer on your comnunity or struggle up for your own ideas so you can make them real.

1. the townshend acts of 1767 “threaten the country with poverty and ruin.”

at a town meeting held at faneuil hall in boston on october 28, 1767, boston freeholders and residents discussed the implications of the brutal townshend acts levied against the colonists. the townshend acts were a set of four acts passed by the british parliament in the summer of 1767 in order to generate revenue for the crown (through duties on goods such as lead, glass, paper, and tea) as well as exert british control over the increasingly rebellious colonists.

during the oct. 28 meeting, the bostonians found:

the excessive use of foreign superfluities is the chief cause of the present distressed state of this town, as it is thereby drained of its money: which misfortune is likely to be increased by means of the late additional burthens and impositions on the trade of the province, which threaten the country with poverty and ruin.

as a result, the citizens unanimously voted to boycott all british-made goods.

the answer is false.
