The Legislature and Crime Control Policy
Crime control policy goes back to the founding principles laid out in the Constitution and the debate over federal versus state rights. In preparation for discussion, review the crime control policies and initiatives that your congressman, congresswoman, or senator supports. Visit the congressional websites of the United States Senate and the United States House of Representatives. for a wealth of information. There are a wide range of opinions on several crime control issues stemming from terrorism attacks (e.g., personal freedoms, surveillance, militarizing the police, etc.), response to school shootings (e.g., gun control, etc.), and gang and drug trafficking (e.g., Byrne Justice Assistance Grant, etc.).
Explain the key elements of your representative's crime control policy. As you examine the Congressional policy process, how effective is your Senator or Representative's policy on the overall state criminal justice system or one of the components? Are the state policies in alignment with the national policy? Support your claims with examples from the required materials and/or other scholarly sources, and properly cite your references with both in-text and APA citation
