Multiple Select. The House of Representatives has several powers assigned exclusively to it. Which THREE of the following are powers of the House of Representatives? (3 points)

Question

• ratify treaties
• impeach federal officials
• confirm Presidential appointments
• try cases of the impeachment of federal officials
• elect the President in the event of an Electoral College tie
• initiate revenue bills

Answer 1

The three powers of the House of Representatives are:

1. Impeach federal officials
2. Elect the President in the event of an Electoral College tie
3. Initiate revenue bills

The House of Representatives does not have the power to ratify treaties, confirm Presidential appointments, or try cases of impeachment, as those powers are held by the Senate.
