Question

complete the sentence.
when a senator wants to stop the senate from voting on a bill, he or she can ______ the bill.
amend filibuster impeach veto

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

To solve this, we analyze each option:

  • "amend" means to change a bill, not stop a vote.
  • "filibuster" is a tactic in the Senate to delay or prevent a vote on a bill by prolonged debate.
  • "impeach" is to charge a public official with misconduct, not related to stopping a bill vote.
  • "veto" is a power of the executive (like the President), not senators to stop a bill vote in the Senate.

So the correct term is filibuster.

Answer:

filibuster
