Have you ever wondered where the programs that citizens interact with come from and why they are organized in the manner they are? Today we want to explore the ways in which state governments write and enforce public policy. State governments play a significant role in the areas of business, natural resources, individual rights, health, education, and welfare.</div>

Have you ever wondered how your rights as a citizen get protected? Your rights as you enjoy them come from precedents that are established when the Supreme Court interprets what our founding fathers intended from the Constitution written all those years ago. Today we will look at just how the Judicial branch and our Supreme Court interact with the President and Executive branch, as well as Congress and the Legislative branch in order to enforce any of their decisions, opinions, and rulings.</div>
