The Uniformed Services Employment and Reemployment Rights Act of 1994 (USERRA) establishes a security of employment for the members that protect and serve their country. This Act can be approached from a number of ways and appear both beneficial and challenging. First looking at the benefits, the act protects current and past uniformed service members to ensure that if they were called to duty that they have a place to return to. Honestly, this is the right thing to do. Their intent of serving their country and protecting those that live within the United States should be acknowledged and rewarded.…

Responsible government and separation of powers are the two most widespread forms of democracy in the modern world. Responsible government was born in England and is now a regime that we have in Canada. First, it emerged to give more independence to the colonies, but later became fully independent from the Crown, except Crown 's formal duties.

In this paper I will argue that separation of powers is more democratic than responsible government, because in separation of powers model citizens have more influence on their government through electing most of the officials and it is easier to maintain democratic…
What are the advantages of having a branch of government that is not democratically elected? An example of when none elected officials is an advantage would be, appointing judges. This allows them to focus on making decisions based on law and not on what their voters about their decisions.

Americans take a lot of pride and feel a big connection in their home state, federalism which in turn keeps that connection by giving power to the states. One advantage of a policy that must be implemented by one agency of the federal bureaucracy is the bureaucrats that are the experts in bureaucracy. Bureaucrats put government policy into practice, and therefore the federal bureaucracy has a large impact on policymaking. The bureaucrats that set up the policies are the experts that know much more about the policy issues than anyone else and this creates bureaucracy power. One disadvantage is president cannot monitor every group within the bureaucracy; so much of what bureaucrats does goes unnoticed.…
The Judiciary branch has the least power, according to Hamilton, because the Judiciary Branch is at the mercy of the Constitution and the Constitution alone. It only has the ability to judge whether the law is constitutional sound or not. The Judiciary Branch was solely tasked with interpreting the Constitution as it applied to law. This means that the court had no power to create laws or to enforce them, only the power to determine whether the laws hold up with the supreme law of the land, the US…

The Law and Public Service Program is directed to students with interests in history, politics, government, and law. Students have to demonstrate abilities like leadership, compassion, respect, and pride. I am intrigued about learning in this program and believe that I could be a good model and representation of what a student learning in the Law and Public Service program should be. Being a leader is not always directing people in the right direction, leaders have to have enthusiasm and be helpful. During my experience in Eisenhower Middle School, I have participated in school sports like soccer and cheerleading.…
