The answer to your question is "approval of presidential treaties and appointments." This is an example of a non-legislative function of Congress because it involves the confirmation of executive branch appointments and the ratification of treaties negotiated by the President.
To arrive at this answer, we can analyze the options given:
1. Circling a discharge petition in the House: A discharge petition is a legislative tool used to bring a bill out of committee and to the floor for consideration. It is a legislative function of Congress.
2. Introducing a bill by placing it in the hopper: This is a legislative function of Congress as well. Members of Congress introduce bills by submitting them to the hopper, which is a designated box.
3. Using cloture to force the end of a debate: Cloture is a legislative procedure used to end a filibuster and bring a debate to a close. It is a tool specifically used for the legislative process.
4. Approval of presidential treaties and appointments: This is a non-legislative function of Congress as it involves the oversight and checks and balances on the President's executive power. The Senate has the power to approve or reject treaties and confirm or reject appointments made by the President.
In this case, the correct answer is "approval of presidential treaties and appointments."
