Rachel Doyle · Answer 2

The correct anwer is D) To review a tax bill the senate has proposed.

Explanation:

Only the house can introduce formal tax laws. This is based on the origination clause, which took inspiration from the British Parliament, in which there are two chambers: the House of Lords (analogous to the Senate), and the House of Commons (analogous to the House of Representatives), and only the House of Commons can introduce tax legislation.

However, a bill can be in theory introduced by anyone, including citizens. A tax bill can come from the Senate, but it has to be reviewed by the House, and the House has the power to nulify it.
