  • CAUFORNIA GEOGRAPHICAL Society INTERSTATE Scott L
    CAUFORNIA GEOGRAPHICAL SociETY Vol. XXXIII, 1993 CALIFORNIA'S REDISTRIBUTIVE ROLE IN INTERSTATE MIGRATION, 1935-1990 Scott L Kirsch alifornia has for long been the primary geographic focus of west­ Cward migration across the United States. In recent decades, while California has continued to attract the greatest number of interstate mi­ grants, the state has also emerged as the country's leading redistributor of population. From 1985 to 1990, nearly 2 million interstate migrants moved to California, and during the same period over 1.8 miUion inter­ state migrants left California for other states (U.S. Department of Commerce 1993). For the third consecutive decade, California not only attracted the greatest number of interstate migrants, it was also the most common state of origin for United States internal migration. In the pro­ cess of California's interstate population exchange, clear geographic pat­ terns have developed: Californja has gained population from the Northeastern and Midwestern states of the traditional industrial core, and lost popu1ation to the states of the peripheral West, most notably to Washington and Oregon (Kirsch 1991). Meanwhile, Californja now at­ tracts more international migrants than any other state (Muller and Espenshade 1985), and with immigration as the largest component of California's population growth, larger than both interstate migration and natural increase, the state's population reached 29.8 million .in 1990 (U.S. Department of Commerce 1993). Bearing in mind these trends in migration flow and population growth, an analysis of California's role as a population redistributor is a crucial step towards understanding the movement and distribution of popu1ation in the United States.

INTRODUCTION While the federal government struggles to pass a comprehen- sive climate bill, California finds itself in the familiar position as a leader in clean energy and environmental policy by establishing the nation's first low carbon fuel standard (LCFS). 1 Standing in its way, however, are several lawsuits pending in the Ninth Circuit alleging that California's LCFS violates the United States Constitution.2 The plaintiffs in these lawsuits, including ethanol producers, corn farm- ers, and trucking associations, are all fighting to prevent unfavora- ble corn-ethanol regulations from decimating the corn-ethanol market in California, the nation's largest ethanol-consuming state.3 As the scientific community debates the facts surrounding the in- clusion of indirect land-use change in carbon accounting, the coun- try awaits a decision from the Eastern District of California on the important constitutional and environmental issues associated with state regulations of carbon emissions.4 1.

  • Texas Statutes and Codes Pathfinder
    THURGOOD MARSHALL SCHOOL OF LAW LIBRARY Pathfinder Series Itunu Sofidiya, Learning Resources Librarian Revised May 2015 Texas Statutes and Codes I. INTRODUCTION Texas is one of the few states that have retained a unified code, which uses a single alphanumeric system of numbering for all statutes. This arrangement proved too difficult to accommodate growth in statutory law. As a result, the Texas Legislative Council began work on a non- substantive revision of the Texas statutes in 1963. This large-scale project continues today. Material is being moved from the Vernon’s Annotated Revised Civil Statutes of the State of Texas and is being incorporated into individual annotated codes arranged by subject (for example, the Family Code). The current Texas Statutes are available on the Texas Legislature's website Texas Legislature Online. While the online version of the statutes contain only the language of the law, the Thurgood Marshall School of Law Library has a complete set of Vernon's Texas Codes Annotated which is available for patrons to use in the library. This set provides helpful annotations to case law and secondary sources relevant to a particular statute. II. LEGISLATIVE PROCESS IN TEXAS The Texas Legislature meets regularly in odd-numbered years for a maximum of 140 days beginning the second Tuesday in January. Along with the 140-day session, the Governor may call special sessions to consider other matters. Both the House and Senate members introduce bills in the first 60 days. After 60 days, there are restrictions on introducing a bill. When a bill is introduced, it is assigned a bill number such as S.B.

INCOME FROM SEPARATE PROPERTY: TOWARDS A THEORETICAL FOUNDATION THOMAS R. ANDREWS* I INTRODUCTION: THE PROBLEM STATED This article addresses an important area of historical disagreement among the community property states: the characterization of the rents, issues, and profits ("income") from separate property brought into or acquired during marriage Of the nine community property states, five characterize the income derived from separate property as separate property.2 The other four states characterize such income as community property.3 Although there have been scattered discussions of this issue throughout the community property case law and literature over the years, I have searched the literature in vain for a comprehen- sive treatment of the question.4 Certainly there has not been one in recent years. The issue is important because of the prevalence of separate property in marriages. Two societal phenomena are combining to cause increasingly more separate property to be brought into marriages.
