Week 1 DQ 1
Identify all of your state’s delegates (senators and representatives)
to congress by name and party affiliation. Do you feel that the
overall party affiliation of your delegates reflects the feelings of
people in your state accurately? Why or why not?

Week 1 DQ 2
Federalism can be defined as the distribution of power between a
central government and constituent units—in the case of the United
States, between the federal government and the state governments.
Do you think the current balance of power between these entities is
appropriately balanced, or imbalanced in one way or the other?
Explain why you think so, and, if you think they are imbalanced, in
which direction you think they are imbalanced.
