This topic is intended to be relevant to recent events in which the US government has threatened, and in some cases utilized, federal resources to force states to comply with certain actions.

This is a persuasive essay/argument which is intended to argue both sides to the topic with at least two pages dedicated to each side. This topic is intended to be relevant to recent events in which the US government has threatened, and in some cases utilized, federal resources to force states to comply with certain actions. This has applied to both the pandemic and civil rights demonstrations. This is intended to be a persuasive argument paper more so than a research paper. Utilization of the legal basis for such actions, and why such actions are not permissible (on the against argument side) will be important but I’m also looking for your best policy argument as to why each side should or should not be utilized. I will expect to see certain parts of the Constitutional discussion that should be considered relevant to this topic. Include references.
