The US Senate initially rejected the treaty of 1844, which aimed to annex Texas, due to concerns about slavery and the potential for conflict with Mexico. In contrast, the joint resolution of 1845, which sought to annex Texas through a simple majority vote in Congress, was passed more easily, reflecting a shift in public sentiment and political dynamics. The resolution's success was partly due to the growing desire for westward expansion and the belief in Manifest Destiny. Ultimately, the joint resolution circumvented the Senate's earlier rejection by using a different legislative approach.

The Treaty of Versailles, 1919--
The Senate plays a crucial role in the treaty process as outlined in the U.S. Constitution. After a treaty is negotiated and signed by the President, it must be submitted to the Senate for approval. The Senate must ratify the treaty with a two-thirds majority vote, allowing it to become legally binding. This process ensures that treaties have broad support and reflects the interests of both the executive and legislative branches.
