Special districts are in charge of a specific service, such as water districts and school districts. They are created to provide a specific function that is not part of the regular municipal government services. The article goes into detail, explaining that special districts have recently become more prevalent because they can be used in place of local taxes when people are less interested in paying taxes for general fund budgets. This allows elected officials to make up the difference with other funding sources, like district assessments. There can also be cases where multiple special districts overlap each other's boundaries or there may not be enough revenue generated by the district to cover all expenses.

Answer: A. The abolitionist movement grew stronger.
<em>Dred Scott v. Sandford (1857)</em> was a landmark decision by the United States Supreme Court. It held that black people whose ancestors were imported into the U.S., whether enslaved of free, could not be American citizens. Therefore, they could not sue in federal court. Moreover, it ruled that the federal government had no power to regulate slavery in the territories acquired after the creation of the United States.
The decision was controversial, and greatly opposed by abolitionist groups. It strengthened the abolitionist movement and may have been a catalyst for the American Civil War.
