One of the leading danger to the average citizen of California is the increase of crime rate. In modern days some citizens are even scared to carry out there lives due to rising gang activity. Recent studies show that 1 in 4 residents of California will at one point be a victim of violent crime such as murder, forced rape, robbery, aggravated assault, or burglary. The government would be doing an injustice to it’s own people by taking away their protection. Another
It is my recommendation that the California House of Representatives revisit AB 568 for a second vote in order to pass this bill into law after Governor Jerry Brown’s recent veto.
10) There is a group called the Mexican American Legal Defense and Education Fund that supports Cedillo 's idea of allowing illegal aliens to posses driver 's licenses, but feel that there should not be any background checks or other restrictions(Kline par. 13). The MALDEF feel that every citizen of Mexico coming into California should receive a license, whether they are criminals or not. The old bill, AB 1463, was vetoed in the year 2000 by former Governor Gray Davis. Davis stated that AB 1463 was an "invitation for fraud (House par. 9)." But once Davis 's job was starting to crumble, he decided to pass the new bill ,AB 60, to try and gain more support from legal and illegal Hispanics in the state of California before he was recalled. After what had happened on September 11, 2001, Gil Cedillo withdrew the bill from Gray Davis 's files. However, recently the new governor of California, Arnold Schwarzenegger, has been trying to bring a new a bill with more qualifications ,such as a special mark on the licenses to indicate that the holder is illegal, to help bring driver 's licenses to illegal immigrants (Kline par. 12). With this bill in effect, illegal immigrants would have the opportunity to vote for an official of the state and country they are living in illegally.
Assembly bill 109 has been introduced to California as a way to help reduce prison inmates have their medical service denied. Assembly bill 109 introduce it has affected aspect of the justice system all they can do is roll with the punches. There has been increase in employees in counties from corrections to court to police department. As previously stated, it just in beta version and are still working out kinks that come with new laws trying to find the right rhythm for each county to work with. I have to say this assembly bill is very complex to understand for citizen but it’s twice as hard for the justices system to implement it to every county in California. It does say it going to be different from county to county and the end result it to reduce the number of inmate in our prison system. In which I believe we are in the right road to fixing our correctional institute. Have the non-offender serving in local jails instead of state prisons we are saving money in those areas but also bring more offenders closer to our community to committee crime in our back yards. It would benefit all those in justice system if instead of adding new laws fixing those laws we already have at work in our
This paper is about the Propisition 60 that will be voted on in California this November. It discuses the opposing arguments for and against the bill and what the consequences will be if the bill is passed. Also it will discuss as to whether the Proposition is best viewed from consensus or conflict view of law.
Fiscal Policy can be explained in many ways, for example. Fiscal policy is the use of the government budget to affect an economy. When the government decides on the taxes that it collects, the transfer payments it gives out, or the goods and services that it purchases, it is engaging in fiscal policy. The primary economic impact of any change in the government budget is felt by particular groups—a tax cut for families with children, for example, raises the disposable income of such families. Discussions of fiscal policy, however, usually focus on the effect of changes in the government budget on the overall economy—on such macroeconomic variables as GNP and unemployment and inflation.
During the good times, America tried to pay down the huge debt, then there would be a war and the debt will be up again. Wright says “What the battle was really about was how quickly to pay off the national debt, not whether to pay it off or not”. It wasn’t easy for politicians to sweep spending until Jackson had arrived.
Heather Thompson argues that the greater increase of disparity between African Americans and Whites arose during the New Deal era because it eliminated most of the unfavorable assumptions based on Whites’ social standing. This further divergence eventually allowed greater prejudice to be more narrowly focused on poor African Americans rather than the impoverished class as a whole in the 1960s and 70s. While African Americans are still advocating for civil rights during this period, they were still treated like second class citizens in urban settings by police. A major factor that lead to the mass incarceration of poor African Americans and the criminalization of urban areas was the new anti-drug legislation that was sweeping the country. After
In the article, “The Economics of Major League Baseball Free Agency: Start It Earlier To Achieve Fiscal Sanity” (2014), Reuter, T. explains why signing athletes to mega-contracts is an albatross waiting to happen and other cautionary tales relating to the baseball free agent market. Reuter, asserts that the current Major League Baseball (MLB) labor agreement is out of date and is in need of a major overhaul. His viewpoint on this issue is that baseball is a young man’s game and it would be smart for Major League Baseball to acknowledge that fact and start free agency earlier in their careers.
The prop will gather up to $2 billion for health care and give it to those families that can’t afford in Holzer's "California Ballot 2016: Pros and Cons of Props 51-56" article. Proposition 55 isn’t only helping out with one situation but multiple that are related in some type of way. They all have the same goal to end the budget cuts, get help and get funds to keep running their programs. The majority of the tax increase will go to k-12 grade schools, eleven percent will go to state community colleges and the remaining to Medi-Cal or health care. The proposition will also help the music and art programs at schools so they won’t get cut off. Proposition 55 is also making sure that low income families get health care. It helped the Legislature balance its budget for the first time in years without slashing social programs (Calefati). The money that is being taken away from the wealthy have helped a lot since these propositions started it helps keep control of the budget cuts. California should see a change if proposition 55 passes starting in education, healthcare, budget cuts and other organizations it funds. If voters approve Proposition 55, the state will continue to depend on Taybi and other wealthy Californians to fund a significant portion of schools, parks, road repairs, and other government services ( Liam). While the government gets back on track and could start funding the program by itself the best thing right now is to depend on the wealthy. This is why it's important to vote yes on proposition
The national debt is the total amount of money owed by the government which is calculated almost like an indivitual’s personal debt. i.e. total assets minus liabilities. Or rather expenses minus income. The unnited states government spend smore than it brings in in Revenue from taxation and so on. The national debt has been a bone of contention between those who want to keep it down by cutting spending (fiscal conservatives) and those who want to spend even more (liberal progressives). The national debt is determined mainly by either a deficit or a surplus via the budget. The united states budget is determined by a politically non-partisan agency called congressional budget office. According to this agency, the United States has not had a balanced
The federal government’s debt is the total value of all outstanding government bonds and the accumulation of past deficits. Before the federal government had assumed the liabilities of CMHC which was $236,708 million dollars as of September 30, 2015 and the liabilities of commercial banks, growth in Canada’s Gross Domestic Product (GDP) had been forecasted to be low due to continual fall in oil prices in the last six months which has lead to a significant depreciation in the value of the Canadian dollar and considerable declines in the federal government revenue.
Much like a person or a corporation, the United States government uses money for its operations; meaning that it has both income and expenses. The income of the United States is derived from various taxes and fees and the expenses are what the U.S. government pays out for national defense, highways, social welfare programs, and various other programs.
The current government has lost 300,000 manufacturing jobs while adding 300,000 new gov’t jobs. Unwilling Hosts for Turbines
