Discussion
Find an Op-Ed that discusses any law enacted by the Texas Legislature in the last six years. Find an interesting, controversial law that generated a good deal of discussion. Especially look for law that could affect your life or the lives of those you know. Read the Op-Ed. What does the law call for - what will be its effect? What is the argument made by the author of the Op-Ed - is it for or against the law. What arguments on the other side do you think could be made. What do you think of the law - make sure you make arguments and cite evidence to support your position.
