Assume that you are a member of a special interest group that wants to raise taxes on certain items. Who would you present your idea to if you wanted it to be proposed as a bill?
a Supreme Court justice
the president
the American people
a senator
a member of the House
The most appropriate person to present the idea of raising taxes on certain items as a bill would be a member of the House or a senator. They have the authority to propose legislation and introduce bills in Congress. Presenting the idea to a Supreme Court justice or the president would not be the correct avenue for proposing a tax increase, as they do not have the power to introduce bills in Congress. While it is important to gauge public opinion and support, ultimately, it is the legislators who will need to take action on the proposed tax increase.
