Introduction
This activity is an opportunity for you to closely examine a contemporary policy issue facing the state of Texas. Over its history, the Texas government has had many conflicts with the national government as part of the dynamics under a federal system of governance. These disputes have heated up in recent years, and include immigration policy, education policy, environmental policy, social welfare policy and many others issues. Select one of personal interest and objectively outline the nature of the dispute. This will allow you to work towards finding a solution. Included work cited and in essay format. Topics can be over gun control or immigration 
Take into consideration constitutional disputes as well as political, economic and cultural differences. Look at the history underlying the dispute, how it is playing out within the governing institutions, and how you think the issue may be resolved, assuming that is possible.
Completing this activity is a mandatory component of this course. It serves as the standard course assessment for all GOVT 2306 students. Failure to submit this project in its entirety will result in a failing grade for the course. There are three steps to completing this project.
Step 1: Identify the issue and how both the US government and Texas government have been currently addressing it (historical perspective). 
Step 2: Gather a minimum of three scholarly research articles and additional news/current events relevant to the topic.
Step 3: Prepare a formal policy report that is a minimum of 1000 words (excluding cited text), which includes a discussion of the following:
A statement of the current policy
Reasons for initiating changes
Policy options to be considered
Pros and cons of each option
Recommended course of action
Reasoning for selecting that course of action

1 In your opinion, were the Radical Republicans correct in their assumptions regarding the South, or could Lincoln’s approach have paved the way for a continuation of the political, social, and economic gains that African Americans had achieved during Reconstruction? Support your argument(s) including information from assigned and linked readings 

Read “The American Yawp” Volume I: Before 1877.

The Revolutionary Era: Chapter 5: Sections V-VII and Chapter 6: Sections I-V
Washington and Adams: Chapter 6: Sections VI-XI 
Jefferson and the War of 1812: Chapter 7: Sections III-VII
Each week students will compose 5 multiple choice questions per topic based on the 
information from the textbook American Yawp. This week has three topics, thus, for week 2 
students will write 15 questions. Questions should be multiple choice with 4 possible answers, no more and no less, and those questions should be based only on the material in the 
chapters found in the textbook. As part of this, students must identify the correct answer 
by highlighting it and they must provide a citation, including the chapter, paragraph, and 
section where they found the information to write the question. Your questions MUST 
reflect content from the entirety of each chapter, you should have no more than one 
question that asks about dates per topic, and your questions must be appropriately numbered.  You want to be sure to write good questions as some of them will likely appear on 
the quizzes. Each set of 5 questions will be worth 30 points, or 6 points per question.

Post 1:
Background Information
After Fort Sumter was surrendered to Confederate forces, both the North and the South began recruiting men and organizing armies for what most believed would be a short war. However, nothing could prepare Americans for what became the most cataclysmic event in United States history. A quick end to the struggle proved to be illusory. The battles at Manassas, Shiloh, Antietam, Fredericksburg, Chancellorsville, among many others, provided the dramatic evidence. Death, suffering, privation, fear, discouragement and hopelessness were feelings shared by many Americans, not the least of which were the armies themselves. Yet most soldiers bravely persevered, finding hope and consolation in the Bible, numerous religious tracts and periodicals, and in religious services held by chaplains. The camps and the battlefields became a fertile field for missionary activity, and tens of thousands of soldiers on both sides either recommitted to Christ or trusted Him for the first time. Bible and tract societies, and organizations such as the United States Christian Commission printed and distributed millions of pages worth of Christian literature. The soldiers found hope and encouragement in the Scriptures. In the mid-19th century, American culture was largely shaped by a Christian worldview and biblical precepts. Today, the Bible is still God’s handbook for living. It teaches, challenges, commands, encourages, gives hope and most importantly, invites us into a saving and transforming relationship with God through Christ. In Paul’s letter to Timothy, he writes “All Scripture is inspired by God and is useful to teach us what is true and to make us realize what is wrong in our lives. It corrects us when we are wrong and teaches us to do what is right. God uses it to prepare and equip his people to do every good work.” (2nd Timothy 3:16-17) James, the brother of Jesus, writes: “But don’t just listen to God’s word. You must do what it says.” (James 1:22) Finally, Jesus himself taught us that “People do not live by bread alone, but by every word that comes from the mouth of God.” (Matthew 4:4) Instructions : (be positive) Do you think the Bible still shapes the lives of Americans today? How is the Bible viewed in our culture today? From what source is your worldview shaped? How do you distinguish truth from fiction and by what standard is your lifestyle based? Post 2:
In what battles did Lee and the Army of Northern Virginia earn decisive victories? Why was Lee successful; or, why did Union generals in the East fail to win on the battlefield? Post 3: Identify and explain three provisions of the Emancipation Proclamation. How did President Lincoln justify his emancipation policy? How did emancipation impact the social, political and military landscape?
