Misty Schultz is a general education major transferring towards psychology. She is motivated to participate more in politics to make the future better for her children. She teaches her children about voting to show them their voice can be heard. Schultz was surprised to learn interest groups have power in numbers and influence leaders. She also learned the death penalty is costly but popular. Fracking poses risks to the environment and water supply that could impact future generations. Texas has the largest judicial system and practices the most executions. It also influences federal policy on border control and immigration due to its large immigrant workforce and undocumented population. Schultz plans to get more involved in politics through interest groups and apply lessons about overfunding prisons versus education

Gay rights paper barnes
Civil rights issues today extend beyond segregation to include matters of sexual orientation and gay rights. While same-sex marriage is now legal in five states, Massachusetts, Connecticut, Iowa, Vermont and New Hampshire as well as Washington D.C., many other states do not recognize it and there remains criticism of these policies. The gay rights movement continues to seek widespread support for equal treatment and acceptance as it has faced opposition over concerns about the influence on children.
Participation in politics presentation
Ashlynn Whitley is planning to major in psychology at Southeastern University. She is motivated to participate in politics because the current government will affect her future children. She believes social media is an important way to engage younger people in politics. Whitley learned that Texas has a higher crime rate than other states, possibly due to stricter laws, and may become more politically liberal in the future. One major issue in Texas is a new abortion law banning abortions after 5 weeks, which has angered many women who believe the law restricts their bodily autonomy. As a large state with a big population, Texas plays a huge role in influencing the federal government through its political decisions.

She believes immigration is the most important political issue for future generations to consider because of Texas's role in the issue and the need to build a better future for both current and future immigrants. While Texas thinks it has influence over federal decisions, she does not think its influence is as great as believed, though it may

Organizational Issues
This document discusses several organizational issues including abortion, Guantanamo Bay detention center, and healthcare reform in the United States.

On healthcare reform, it notes the goals of expanding coverage and access while reducing costs, and that reform faces challenges in implementation but is ultimately a legislative decision for Americans.
Prison Reform
Prison reform aims to establish a more humane criminal justice system based on prevention, rehabilitation, and equal treatment under the law rather than punishment. However, there is much controversy around reform due to clashes between political ideologies, religious views, and misunderstandings about the goals of reform. While some support more humane policies like preventing prisoner suicides, others argue the system should acknowledge the root causes of issues like crime and focus more on prevention rather than punishment.

The Fair Housing Act prohibits discrimination in the sale, rental, or financing of housing based on race, religion, national origin, sex, familial status or disability. It aims to ensure all people have equal access to housing and are not denied housing opportunities due to their sex, religion, or sexual orientation. The act was necessary to address racist attitudes that were denying people housing, which could lead to increased homelessness and crime if left unaddressed.
Political party
Shae Eubank's political party supports:
1) Same-sex marriage and requiring marriage counseling before divorce, except in cases of infidelity.
2) A progressive tax system where the wealthier pay higher percentages and lower taxes on groceries to reduce food costs and welfare.

State Legislative Term Limits: The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly
The document discusses a proposed amendment to impose term limits on members of the Illinois General Assembly. It would limit politicians to 8 years of service and not count any time served before 2015. Supporters argue it would weaken powerful legislative leaders like Mike Madigan and create more turnover. However, critics say term limits would weaken the legislature by reducing experience and shifting power to unelected positions. The transition would also be confusing and conflictual over several sessions.
(Week 4) political participation
The document discusses various forms of political participation, including voting, campaigning, contacting officials, and joining interest groups. It examines factors that influence participation such as income, age, race, and gender. Voter turnout in the US increased in the 2004 and 2008 presidential elections due to voter mobilization efforts.

Low turnout could create participation bias that favors those who are older, employed, better educated and identify with political parties.

Anthony, Elizabeth Cady Stanton, and the National American Woman Suffrage Association.

Your arguement, your vote
The document discusses several topics related to politics and democracy:
1) A father tries to explain politics to his son by comparing their family roles to different parts of government. The son later says he understands that the president is taking advantage of the working class while the government does nothing.
2) Democracy is seen as a universal value by many around the world, and research shows it can aid development by fostering economic activity. However, some regions like the Middle East still lack democratic institutions that could help advance women's rights.
3) The speaker urges citizens to get involved in the political process through voting, as the government is facing large deficits that could lead to rising taxes if not addressed by the people working together

Immigration and border security is seen as a key long-term political issue for Texas. While Texas influences some national Republican positions, it does not have significantly more influence in federal government than other states. Medlin has learned about the death penalty, potential political shifts in Texas, and the state's court system structure.
Feminist Political Ideology Essays

Crislynn Autry is a high school senior who is interested in physical therapy or kinesiology. She believes her generation has a reputation for being careless about politics and voting. She wants to help change this by being an informed and engaged citizen who votes in every election. Something that surprised her was learning how much family and friends influence political beliefs and voting habits. She was also surprised by the limited power of minor political parties and differences in how local governments operate. Crislynn thinks the two-party system creates unnecessary divisions and hopes future generations can address this issue.
Scott Masom government powerpoint
Voting is important to ensure laws align with one's beliefs regarding family and social issues. Being politically active and informed helps solidify one's views on issues like abortion. The author was surprised to learn about the extensive use and high costs of the death penalty, and wants to know how minorities can better participate in politics. More funding should be given to education to improve learning outcomes rather than just testing. Immigration is a major issue for Texas given its role and the state's hesitancy to crack down without national policy changes. Media must provide accurate, unbiased information and interest groups can influence policy changes. Texas is starting to explore alternative energy sources in addition to oil.

Monitoring Health for the SDGs - Global Health Statistics 2024 - WHO
The 2024 World Health Statistics edition reviews more than 50 health-related indicators from the Sustainable Development Goals and WHO’s Thirteenth General Programme of Work. It also highlights the findings from the Global health estimates 2021, notably the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on life expectancy and healthy life expectancy.
Border towns and spaces of (in)visibility.pdf
This report explores the significance of border towns and spaces for strengthening responses to young people on the move. In particular it explores the linkages of young people to local service centres with the aim of further developing service, protection, and support strategies for migrant children in border areas across the region. The report is based on a small-scale fieldwork study in the border towns of Chipata and Katete in Zambia conducted in July 2023. Border towns and spaces provide a rich source of information about issues related to the informal or irregular movement of young people across borders, including smuggling and trafficking. They can help build a picture of the nature and scope of the type of movement young migrants undertake and also the forms of protection available to them. Border towns and spaces also provide a lens through which we can better understand the vulnerabilities of young people on the move and, critically, the strategies they use to navigate challenges and access support.
The findings in this report highlight some of the key factors shaping the experiences and vulnerabilities of young people on the move – particularly their proximity to border spaces and how this affects the risks that they face. The report describes strategies that young people on the move employ to remain below the radar of visibility to state and non-state actors due to fear of arrest, detention, and deportation while also trying to keep themselves safe and access support in border towns. These strategies of (in)visibility provide a way to protect themselves yet at the same time also heighten some of the risks young people face as their vulnerabilities are not always recognised by those who could offer support.
In this report we show that the realities and challenges of life and migration in this region and in Zambia need to be better understood for support to be strengthened and tuned to meet the specific needs of young people on the move. This includes understanding the role of state and non-state stakeholders, the impact of laws and policies and, critically, the experiences of the young people themselves. We provide recommendations for immediate action, recommendations for programming to support young people on the move in the two towns that would reduce risk for young people in this area, and recommendations for longer term policy advocacy.

Combined Illegal, Unregulated and Unreported (IUU) Vessel List.
The best available, up-to-date information on all fishing and related vessels that appear on the illegal, unregulated, and unreported (IUU) fishing vessel lists published by Regional Fisheries Management Organisations (RFMOs) and related organisations. The aim of the site is to improve the effectiveness of the original IUU lists as a tool for a wide variety of stakeholders to better understand and combat illegal fishing and broader fisheries crime.
To date, the following regional organisations maintain or share lists of vessels that have been found to carry out or support IUU fishing within their own or adjacent convention areas and/or species of competence:
Commission for the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources (CCAMLR)
Commission for the Conservation of Southern Bluefin Tuna (CCSBT)
General Fisheries Commission for the Mediterranean (GFCM)
Inter-American Tropical Tuna Commission (IATTC)
International Commission for the Conservation of Atlantic Tunas (ICCAT)
Indian Ocean Tuna Commission (IOTC)
Northwest Atlantic Fisheries Organisation (NAFO)
North East Atlantic Fisheries Commission (NEAFC)
North Pacific Fisheries Commission (NPFC)
South East Atlantic Fisheries Organisation (SEAFO)
South Pacific Regional Fisheries Management Organisation (SPRFMO)
Southern Indian Ocean Fisheries Agreement (SIOFA)
Western and Central Pacific Fisheries Commission (WCPFC)
The Combined IUU Fishing Vessel List merges all these sources into one list that provides a single reference point to identify whether a vessel is currently IUU listed. Vessels that have been IUU listed in the past and subsequently delisted (for example because of a change in ownership, or because the vessel is no longer in service) are also retained on the site, so that the site contains a full historic record of IUU listed fishing vessels.
Unlike the IUU lists published on individual RFMO websites, which may update vessel details infrequently or not at all, the Combined IUU Fishing Vessel List is kept up to date with the best available information regarding changes to vessel identity, flag state, ownership, location, and operations.

- 1. MY NAME IS MISTY SCHULTZ MY MAJOR IS GENERAL EDUCATION WITH TRANSFER TOWARDS PSYCHOLOGY
- 2. What motivates me to become an active participant in our political system is…… I don’t like how things have been going within our political system. Our political leaders are people just like us. We have to get involved in order to be heard and continue following up with current events. I want to help make the future better for my children. I can do this by teaching my children how to make a difference. I take them with me to vote. It shows them that even a single voice can be heard.
- 3. Things I’ve learned that surprised me…… Interest groups serve a great purpose in our political system. There is power in numbers. Our political leaders must listen to us. By joining we can make a difference. There were many things I learned but the most impressive thing had to be the death penalty. I knew it existed but never thought of it. It seems to be popular in many countries and the cost of the lethal injection seems outrageous.
- 4. A political issue important for our future generations Fracking: The arguments on whether or not to continue practicing fracking will effect our future generations. It poses a higher risk on our environment. Fracking fluids contain hazardous chemicals and are being pushed down below our natural aquifers by very high pressures which are causing man-made earthquakes that will eventually crack the earth and create possible leaks. This cartoon demonstrates the dangers that we face in the near future. Fracking requires up to 4 million gallons just for a single well. Our natural fresh water supply is depleting to fast. We do need fresh water to survive. Our future is at stake.
- 5. The role Texas plays in the federal government The Judicial System Texas has the largest judicial system in the country. Texas has over 4,000 justices and judges. Texas also is #1 in the nation that practice executions. The Criminal Justice System Texas is ranked #1 in the nation that practices executions. The death penalty cost millions however life in prison without parole will cost close to the same. As long as Texas is willing to continue the executions the government will continue to be influenced. Border Control and Immigration Immigrants make up about 20% of the Texas workforce. There are over 1.5 million undocumented immigrants in Texas. The Federation for American Immigration Reform are advocates for increased border control. This interest group will influence the federal government in the future.
- 6. What I’ve learned To make a real difference we have to get involved with our politics somehow. Joining interest groups are a great place to start. One thing I will take with me is the facts about the U.S. Prison system. How much money goes into funding for prisons and how much more we need to support our education. To improve our future for our children.
