The Environmental Law and Policy Annual Review Dear Readers: The Environmental Law and Policy Annual Review (ELPAR) is published by the Environmental Law Institute’s (ELI’s) Environmental Law Reporter (ELR) in partnership with Vanderbilt University Law School . ELPAR provides a forum for the presentation and discussion of the best law and policy-relevant ideas on the environment from the legal academic lit- erature each year . The publication is designed to fill the same important niche asELR by helping to bridge the gap between academic scholarship and environmental policymaking . ELI and Vanderbilt formed ELPAR to accomplish three principal goals . The first is to provide a vehicle for the move- ment of ideas from the academy to the policymaking realm . Academicians in the environmental law and policy arena generate hundreds of articles each year, many of which are written in a dense, footnote-heavy style that is inaccessible to policymakers with strong time constraints . ELPAR selects the leading ideas from this large pool of articles and makes them digestible by reprinting them in a short, readable fashion accompanied

Government officials can learn about proposed and historic legislation, identify their legislator, sign up for alerts and notifications, learn what their legislators are thinking, as well as listen to recordings of committee and floor debates using the platform of interrelated services. This suite services also allow government bodies to more effectively participate in the legislative process. Delivering services and information is the core of what government does. The challenge for government is to meet and exceed expectations by delivering services and information across a variety of channels. This suite of services provides targeted notifications, information updates, and email alerts simultaneously to the public and all government officials; providing instantaneous access to information at the same time that the Legislature is receiving it. These service include: ● Le.utah.gov ● Bill Watch ● Voice Assistants ● Social Media ● Financial Disclosures The core of the legislative process is that legislators are acting on feedback received from constituents including the political subdivisions such as cities,counties and school districts. Every bill that they run started with feedback from individuals or groups wanting to make the state better.

  • Constitution of the Puntland State of Somalia
    CONSTITUTION OF THE PUNTLAND STATE OF SOMALIA December 2009 English Translation November 2011 .• Puntland State was created in 1998 through a consultative agreement among the different regions that constitute Puntland. The creation of Puntland State emerged from Somalia's failure to re-establish an inclusive national government for eight years. The people of Puntland realized they could not continue without a government. It was then decided in the constitutional conference of 1998 that Punt land would become a state that would be part of a federal Somalia. A charter was approved in that same 1998 conference and later replaced with a provisional constitution that was approved by members of the House of Representatives in 200 l. A referendum on the constitution was to have taken place in 2004, although this was not accomplished. Since it was not possible to hold a referendum on the constitution it was decided that the constitution would continue in force while undergoing review. The constitutional review process began in May 2007 and continued until June 2009. In the review process, meaningful opinions were contributed from different sectors of Puntland society, such as Somali lawyers and foreign lawyers. Therefore, the new constitution was drafted to become the law of the people of Puntland and was based on the Islamic shari'a and, at the same time, the constitution guides the system of governance, and thus brings collaboration and order among the different government institutions of the state. It is important to mention that this constitution will have an impact on the life of every Puntlander, because no nation may exist without laws, and therefore this constitution brings order among citizens and moreover entrenches their human rights and responsibilities so that they may attain social and economic development.

  • The History of the Term Limit Debate in Congress
    When a Popular Idea Meets Congress: The History of the Term Limit Debate in Congress John David Rausch, jr, West Texas A&M University abstract: This paper examines the history of the term limit debate in the United States from the days of the Articles of Confedera- tion through the 1990s. The research finds that the realities of the legislative process provide infertile ground for enacting congressional term limits. Advocates of term limits serving in Congress have not had the resources to overcome the obstacles presented by the legisla- tive process. The findings contradict the conventional wisdom that Congress responds quickly to popular ideas that sweep the nation. The legislative term limit movement emerged as a signifi- 1784, pp. 98–99).

  • Measuring Legislative Accomplishment, 1877–1994
    Measuring Legislative Accomplishment, 1877–1994 Joshua D. Clinton Princeton University John S. Lapinski Yale University Understanding the dynamics of lawmaking in the United States is at the center of the study of American politics. A fundamental obstacle to progress in this pursuit is the lack of measures of policy output, especially for the period prior to 1946. The lack of direct legislative accomplishment measures makes it difficult to assess the performance of our political system. We provide a new measure of legislative significance and accomplishment. Specifically, we demonstrate how item- response theory can be combined with a new dataset that contains every public statute enacted between 1877 and 1994 to estimate “legislative importance” across time. Although the resulting estimates and associated standard errors provide new opportunities for scholars interested in analyzing U.S. policymaking since 1877, the methodology we present is not restricted to Congress, the United States, or lawmaking. here is a growing literature in political science fraction of enacted public statutes. In addressing the need that seeks to understand the nature of lawmak- to measure legislative accomplishment, our aim is to con- Ting.

  • A Critical Discourse Analysis of Media and Residents. Bernice Thomson A
    Council Estate Discourses: a critical discourse analysis of media and residents. Bernice Thomson A thesis submitted to the University of Gloucestershire in accordance with the requirements of the degree of PhD in the school of Narural and Social Sciences December 2018 ABSTRACT The history of council estates, in England, to date spans 100 years. Over this period the societal attitude relating to housing tenure has changed to one which regards home ownership as the norm. Council housing, or social housing as it is now known, once seen as for the respectable working class, has become the place where people with the most social need are housed. This in turn has altered opinions about the residents living on the estates. This thesis, using Critical Discourse Analysis as a methodology, traces the history of working class housing and the political policies that have informed the way it has developed. In addition, collection of discourses, through research and through interviews with people who now live on council estates, has enabled a representation of how people living on the council estates are viewed. Cheltenham in Gloucestershire has been used as a case study area for the purposes of the research and has been compared with the national situation. The harsh reality of the housing crisis existing at the time of completion of this thesis (2018) and the views of current politicians, both local and national, along with the results of this research has informed a summary of the future of how working class housing might progress. DECLARATION I Bernice Thomson hereby declare that this thesis and the work presented in it is entirely my own.

The photographers took pictures that speak to their experiences of how the St. James Town neighbourhood is affecting the health and well-being of its residents. They took over 200 photographs. Each person chose three of their photographs and wrote about them—touching on why they took each photograph and the health issues it raises. 77 stories were written in all. 54 of these 77 photos were chosen for display in the Community Voices Forum and Expo. In consultation with the photographers, words were taken from the stories to create captions for each picture that capture the essence of the photographers’ messages.
