B. The House of Representatives

Explanation:

Article One of the Constitution of the United States guarantees that high officials can be prosecuted by mandate of the House of Representatives because of serious crimes, with the exception of members of the legislature (without imposing criminal sanctions). As in the British model, once the Congress opens the process, it is the Senate that is in charge of carrying out the trial. To condemn the accused, two thirds of the votes of the senators are necessary. This eventual punishment consists of the dismissal of the accused and his disqualification from holding other public positions.

on december 1, 1774, the continental association was created to boycott all contact with british goods. by reversing the economic sanctions placed on the colonists, the delegates hoped britain would repeal its intolerable acts.
