Discuss how the population has changed in Texas and how it is projected
to change in the future. (Hint: Look at the charts and graphs in Chapter
1.) In what ways might Texas’ politics change in the future based on its
racial and ethnic makeup? Based on the population growth, urbanization
and economic transformation of the last two decades, how might Texas change in
the next two decades? Which areas will grow in population, and what might
Texas’ government have to do to respond to that growth? (Be specific)
·
Has the evolving relationship between the federal government and the
states changed for the better or worse? Why? How has Texas generally responded
to mandates from the federal government? Do you think the federal government
should be allowed to enact “unfunded mandates” on the states? What state
issues, if any, do you feel the federal government should be involved in?
Why these and not others?
·
Discuss
the gender, racial and educational makeup of the Texas Legislature.
(Refer to “Who are Texans?” in Chapter 7.) Does it adequately represent
the population of the state? If the legislature had more people of color,
more women, or more people of varying levels of education, do you think it
would pass different policies? If so, what kinds of policies might they
pass? (Be specific here.) Does the part-time nature of the Texas
legislature encourage or discourage people from particular occupations to
run? Do you think a full-time legislature could make the legislature more
representative? Why or why not?
