Why did the framers of the constitution grant the house of representatives the most "power of the purse"? a) the house had the most influence over the president. eliminate b) the house was seen at being at odds with the senate. c) the house most often favored liberal financial policies. d) the house most directly reflected the will of the citizens.

The correct answer is D) The House most directly reflected the will of the citizens.

The US congress is divided between the Senate and The House. The Senate is the representative of that States interests and The House is the representatives of the people and represents what people want. Because of this, the Framers decided that the Congress, the representatives of the people should be in the control of public funds. This way it’s written:

“All Bills for raising Revenue shall originate in the House of Representatives; but the Senate may propose or concur with amendments as on other Bills.”
