''Mental Health Improvement."

  In State 28 by Tiara Tate, I read her article about the Mental Health Improvement in which I happened to agree with her thoughts into making any change possible. She states that the Department of State Health Services raised their budget back in 2014 and that they have made good improvements. Tiara says that she still feels like they should do more for a change because many people are staying with little to no help and there are hundreds of people still on waiting list to receive any attention and they should start the process as soon as possible. I say that the government has the power necessary to fix this issue and help as many people as possible with the appropriate resources.  I also agree with her last comment on abandoning the situation only making more problems with people staying angry and in need.  I feel like everyone deserves their right to get any type of treatment.

Supreme Court:Voter ID Law Will Stay In Effect for Now.

           In the Texas Tribune I read an article about the voter ID law by Jordan Rudner. The U.S Supreme Court says that the law will remain in effect however as the November elections get closer and closer the U.S fifth circuit court of appeals is running out of time to make a definite decision and if they don't do so by July 20th the justices may or will revisit the issue. The big law that is yet being asked is that upcoming voters have at least one of the seven government ID's before casting any ballot which some say it is a discriminatory act although they argue that it is only to prevent fraud in the states. In August of 2015 a three-judge panel said that the law did in fact have some type of discriminatory effect and that is why they are questioning this law and want to get to the bottom of it .The U.S Justice Department didn't want the fifth circuit of appeals to take the hearings again they did so anyway and are willing to commit to what they believe is right. The court hearing will take place this month on the 24th day where they will proceed to take a decision towards if the law may or may not continue and hope to finish everything before the November elections.
