Local Control

The example of Fracking has been used to illustrate the idea of local control in Texas, since it has spurred the
most controversy over the past couple of years -- but it is not the only example of this debate. Do some
research on your own and find an article about a similar debate regarding another, different issue. What issue
is up to you, just be sure it's a point of debate within Texas and relates in some way to the division of powers
between national/state or state/local (or all of the above) levels of government. (Some ideas: guns, schools,
health care, immigration, bathrooms, civil rights, voting rights, and many, many others.)
Post a link to the article you found and discuss 3 things: First, you should outline the issue well enough that
your classmates get an idea of what the issue is all about (about a paragraph). Second, explain what
governments or levels of government are in conflict over the issue (about a paragraph). Third and finally,
explain which level you think should have the final say -- or, who should be in control over that issue -- and, of
course, why you see it that way.
