Rubesh Phaiju Professor Sherry Sharifian GOVT 2306-71003 28 November 2017 Committees Texas House of Representative consists of many committees which are working for the development of society and the people. Some of the committees which I would consider, if elected are Opioids & Substance Abuse Select Committee, Business & Industry Committee and Economic & Small Business Development Committee.

Decisions regarding environmental problems require both knowledge and values. Placing value on specific issues can be sorted into four categories of justification: utilitarian, ecological, aesthetic and moral. California Blue focuses on the interplay of environmental issues and ethics emphasizing the conflict between industry and species preservation. Timber cutting in the Northwest United States is a mainstay of the economy. Although clear cutting is not as environmentally sensitive as selective harvesting and redwood cutting, some is essential to America's continued growth and prosperity. To ban timber operations and to throw people out of work, all to preserve an endangered blue butterfly, is to test the limits and logic of ecological priorities. The national policy of preserving endangered species serves the purpose of promoting biological diversity, which if not followed might threaten the ecosystem. This national policy of species preservation is a matter of social policy balanced with the competing interests of the local economy and human needs. Under the utilitarian approach one must balance the benefits of species preservation with the detriment of stopping human activity which threatens that species or the environment in which the

The energy category, which “focuses on developing clean energy alternatives to oil and coal and securing nuclear waste and nuclear stockpiles”, receives just over 1% of the federal budget (Document E). Efficient, renewable, and clean energy has recently become a major concern for people in general, especially with the spread of global warming awareness. Now, the race is on to minimize United States contribution to climate change, and in order to make a lasting impact, more money must be allocated to related projects. Also part of the Little Guys category is natural resources and environment, with 1% of the budget (Document E). Also in the vein of environmental conservation, this category deals with the essentials of life, a growing concern in the face of climate change and population growth. In order to find more efficient and ‘greener’ methods of transportation, consumption, and waste management, money taken from other categories must also be distributed here. Finally, general science and space, the national park service, and the FBI come into play, totaling $31 billion, $.1billion, and $8 billion respectively (Document E). Amongst these three categories exists great potential for shifts in budget. The FBI, for example, may be able to function with significantly less money, which, if placed in the general science and space category, may allow for technological advancements, and even answers to many of the issues faced nationally and internationally in modern

According to Ballotpedia, “ The Higher Education Committee is a standing committee of Texas House of Representatives.” The committee consists of nine members and they have the authority to education beyond the high school. The committee also have power over the colleges and universities of Texas. 1 They look after all the matters in the state agencies such as the Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station, the Texas A&M Engineering

But there are 5000 bills that they have to look over in 140 days, which is impossible. So, they use the legislative committee. It is a committee of small deliberative assembly that is usually intended to remain subordinate to another. The main goal of legislative committees are dividing the workload of policy review so they can review better and review more bills as possible. The first type of committee is the standing committee.

The Voice of Public Citizen In Texas” I could relate to both sides of the Local Control and state government. I related a little more with the citizen lobbyist simply because I can relate to what they are trying to oppose. In the article a picture with a banner was presented and quoted “ We will defend ourselves, we will defend our ban”, although Texas Government wants the best for their citizens, but the way they use their powers at times can seem like our government reflect a dictator in power. Citizen lobbyists want to protect the home rule among each city. 1 They want to reflect on House Energy Resource committee, House Environmental Regulation committee, and the representatives

As a member of the Natural Resources and Economic Development Committee and of the Energy Council since the year 2009, she promotes responsible, sustainable development of Texas' energy resources. Through the State Affairs Committee, she addresses issues affecting local governments, such as bond issuances and eminent domain, and issues related to guardianship, such as protecting persons under guardianship from abuse and preventing corruption in the legal

As Rinaldi stated in his article that local control “poses a bigger risk of enacting laws that infringe on individual rights,” which creates some concern that liberty has taken the proverbial backburner in society. 2 Rinaldi states that when local control supporters agree with a state law restricting municipal authority, local control doesn’t seem to be an issue anymore. The in favor opposition creates a compelling argument that local control is the voice of the people and more policy development transpires through this level of government. In very recent media coverage it was made known that local government took a stance on fracking and its’ effects on the reoccurring earthquakes. 3 Unfortunately, the state senate passed a bill that will basically dissipate local control over oil and gas industry activities (White). Many people are upset by this, but the solution is as a voter, pay close attention to the Texas representative and senator and how they voted. 4 Voters can make a difference in this

Asish Thapa Professor Sherry Sharifian GOVT-2306-71001 19th November 2017 Texas Committees If I allowed to serve in the house boards in Texas I would serve in the Environmental control panel, the Energy Resources council, the Human Service advisory group and Senate Committee on Agriculture, Water & Rural Affairs. All the mention committee manage human connection with the environment, and thusly it would be a decent stage to guarantee that I effectively take an interest in the presentation of how people ought to interface with regular resources, energy and each other in the various natural systems in (Texas House of Representatives). The different committees also have roles that are matching, and therefore it would be much pleasure

Since the year 2001 the United States has been under the presidency of a republican, George W. Bush. His has a position in a number of issues including abortion, immigration, the Iraqi war, health care, and social security. On the abortion issue he believes that we should ban partial-birth abortion and reduce abortions altogether and he supports adult stem-cell research but not embryonic stem cell research. He believes that the government should have a responsibility over Medicare and Medicaid. On the topic of social security he suggests that younger workers should be able to put part of their payroll taxes into personal retirement accounts. With the war in Iraq, President Bush is guided on the principle of "return on success" and we

The national or federal environmental administration asks their states to help maintain a safe and clean environment for all of its’ people to enjoy. The National Environmental Policy Act or also known as NEPA was established in 1969 to aid federal agencies to help convey the message for the need to protect the environment. “Federal agencies are required to systematically assess the environmental impacts of their proposed actions and consider alternative ways of accomplishing their missions, which are less damaging to and protective of the environment” (U.S. General Services Administration). Even though the National Environmental Policy Act “requires” federal agencies to ensure states to follow through, Texas has not fully committed to the requirement. “Texas contains an abundance of natural resources, but efforts to impost environmental regulations have faced roadblocks for many decades” (The Texas Tribune). Texas has neglected to keep the environment’s safety in mind and thought of only the business boom. The natural resources found on the land of Texas represents a magnet that attracts people. Texas desires to continue the attraction of people into the state as it is allowing the state to flourish in economic matters. During the past few decades, “From 1970 and 1980, as oil prices spiraled upward and people flocked to Texas,” (Petersen and Assanie) there has been little attempt made in conserving

Right from the end of the 19th Century and the beginning of the 20th Century, there has been a fierce debate concerning how economic growth or development affects the environment or ecological setup of a country. The debate has its basis on whether it would be recommendable for a nation to concentrate on growing its economy while at the same time hurting or harming its ecological system. Naturalists like Pinchot Gifford, John Muir, Love Canal and Cuyahoga County always argued in favor of environmental preservation as opposed to concentrating all efforts towards developing the economy (Olmes 154; Miller 150-51). This paper will, therefore, discuss the struggle between economics and ecology specifically looking at particular events across the Twentieth Century. It will also attempt to explain the factors involved in the pursuit for change on the way people and the administration perceived the environmental conservation as opposed to economic growth.

I am writing to you in regard to the Bridger -Teton National Forest. I write to you as someone who believes in preservation. I believe that the forest should be preserved and not conserved. The Bridger -Teton National Forest is a landmark and should be kept that way. “It is a place where locals find solitude in huge tracts of forest backcountry when nearby wilderness areas and national parks are crowded with out-of-state visitors. It’s also a place that supports traditional, sustainable activities such as outfitting, guiding, ranching, and recreation” (“Wyoming Outdoor Council” 2009-2013). All of these values are being threatened because the forest is being considered for oil and gas development. While oil and gas may be useful to us, I do not think that the forest should suffer the consequences. The natural resources should be left alone for everyone to enjoy in its natural state. To upset this would be environmentally incorrect.
