Full text of Legislation

Has anyone found a full text version of the legislation online? I can find plenty of articles of people's opinions and quotes from the legislation that gets across the point they are trying to make, but none actually have the full legislation without bias. If anyone finds it, please post the link here. Thanks!

May Topic: Arizona Immigration Law

This one is simple: Arizona's new Immigration Law.

Is it a good idea? Bad idea? Good intentions, bad implementation? What's right about it? Wrong about it? Is illegal immigration even a problem?

Go go gadget DEBATE!

Cap and Trade

From the US EPA website, the Cap and Trade system is an environmental policy tool that delivers results with a mandatory cap on emissions while providing sources flexibility in how they comply. Successful cap and trade programs reward innovation, efficiency, and early action and provide strict environmental accountability without inhibiting economic growth.

Is this a good idea? Be prepared to judge this policy from multiple fronts, both environmental and economical. What impact (both pro and con) does this have on all facets? What are some alternatives, or are they needed?

There is plenty here, let’s get our good debate going. Debate starts on the 21st to give you time for real research. Also, email me topics you would like to debate in the future. Let’s keep them current and don’t be afraid of any hot button issues. We’re starting with a less heated topic, but we will jump into hot topics quickly.
