Collin Tucker · Answer 1

They contain members of both major political parties

Joint committees are established by resolution or legislation agreed to by both houses and membership consists of both Members and Senators. The committees are usually established with narrow jurisdictions and normally lack authority to report legislation.

Correct answer choice is:C) They contain members from both major political parties. Explanation:

A joint committee is a panel established up of members of both chambers of a bicameral legislature. In different settings, it relates to a board with divisions from more than one group. Joint committees are normally built with conventional rules and frequently require the jurisdiction to report enactment. Chairmanship normally exchanges between the House and Senate branches from Congress to Congress.
