Why should gerrymandering continue to be illegal in Florida?

Answer:

The U.S. Supreme Court ruled 5-4 on Thursday that federal judges do not have the authority to redraw election districts that are overly skewed in favor of one political party due to map manipulation known as “gerrymandering.”

The decision will have an impact on several states, including North Carolina and Maryland where partisans brought the legal challenges. But in Florida? The effects are more limited.

That’s because unlike some other states, the Florida Constitution already has written rules prohibiting any redistricting maps “drawn with the intent to favor or disfavor a political party or an incumbent.”

“I don’t think it’s going to change anything,’’ said Ellen Freidin, the Miami lawyer who led the 2010 Fair Districts citizens’ initiative to add that rule to the state Constitution.

In 2012, Florida courts overturned maps drawn by the state Legislature that redrew the state Senate and congressional districts. After six years of fierce litigation, including four separate federal court challenges to the map amendments that were rejected by the court, the maps approved by the courts were adopted.

July 28, 1868 </span>
<span>On July 28, 1868, the 14th Amendment to the United States Constitution was ratified. The amendment grants citizenship to "all persons born or naturalized in the United States" which included former slaves who had just been freed after the Civil War. The amendment had been rejected by most Southern states but was ratified by the required three-fourths of the states. Known as the "Reconstruction Amendment," it forbids any state to deny any person "life, liberty or property, without due process of law" or to "deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws." </span></span>

Which section of the project management plan includes external interfaces, internal structure, as well as roles and responsibili
kkurt [141]

Project Organization secontion includes "external interfaces" "internal structures" and "roles and responsibilities"

Explanation:

  • Project organization implies a method, that provides the arrangements and decisions about the accomplishment and the process of the project. The roles and responsibilities are categorized and assigned, the rules of the teamwork are defined and the data system is defined during the project organization. Project organizations are comparatively new and not widely documented. The project manager’s main concern is the successful management of the project’s process interfaces. The project manager is ultimately liable for the on-time, in-budget, to-scope completion of his project. It is, therefore, his ability to manage and organize the work of the operative groups to accomplish these project scope, cost and schedule targets.
  • Functionally managers have responsibility for:
  • Performing work in their functional area on schedule, in the budget, to scope.
  • Implementing functional policy and procedural guidelines.
  • Producing trained staff.
  • Sustaining technical excellence.
  • Planning, organizing, and managing functional groups work to accomplish project budget, schedule, and scope targets.
  • Instigating and ensuring corrective action wherever necessary to assure the execution of these targets.
