Which was established by a Constitution amendment?

President may declare war
House may impeach officials
Senate may ratify treaties
Federal taxation of income

The correct answer is: Senate may ratify treaties

The other options were incorrect because A: The President's power to declare war is established by Article I, Section 8 of the Constitution, not through an amendment. B: The power of impeachment is also established in Article I, Section 2 of the Constitution and does not require an amendment. D: The power of federal taxation is explicitly granted to the government in Article I, Section 8 and does not require an amendment. C: However, the power of the Senate to ratify treaties is established through an amendment - specifically, the 16th Amendment which grants the Senate the power to approve treaties with a two-thirds majority vote.
