death penalty // Federal Death Penalty in Non-Death Penalty States Posted: July 21, 2005 in Federal Death Penalty What's New The federal death penalty was reinstated in 1988 with a limited statute for murders in the course of a drug conspiracy. It was expanded to 60 offenses in 1994 and included crimes such as carjacking and drive-by shootings if a death results. During the Clinton administration, no one from a non-death penalty state was sentenced to death. Since 2000, there have been at least 5 individuals in non-death states who have received death sentences: 2 in Iowa (Dustin Honken and Angela Johnson), 1 in Massachusetts (Gary Sampson), 1 in Michigan (Marvin Gabrion), and most recently, 1 in Vermont (Donald Fell). A total of 40 people are now under a federal death sentence (in some cases, a judge has not formally imposed the sentence). statele fara death penalty sunt dominate de democratzi. iowa, vemont, massachussets. dupa cum vezi, exista, la nivel federal, pedeapsa cu moartea se aplica pentru delicte federale. intamplator, locuiesc in statul cu cele mai multe executzii.

ce pot statele // din cioclpedia lui wiki: States governments have the power to make laws on all subjects that are not granted to the federal government or denied to the states in the U.S. Constitution.These include education, family law, contract law, and most crimes. Unlike the federal government, which only has those powers granted to it in the Constitution, a state government has inherent powers allowing it to act unless limited by a provision of the state or national constitution. Like the federal government, state governments have three branches: executive, legislative, and judicial. The chief executive of a state is its popularly elected governor, who typically holds office for a four-year term (although in some states the term is two years). Except for Nebraska, which has unicameral legislature, all states have a bicameral legislature, with the upper house usually called the Senate and the lower house called the House of Representatives, the House of Delegates, Assembly or something similar. In most states, senators serve four-year terms, and members of the lower house serve two-year terms. The constitutions of the various states differ in some details but generally follow a pattern similar to that of the federal Constitution, including a statement of the rights of the people and a plan for organizing the government. State constitutions are generally more detailed, however. daca citesti ce'am scris mai sus....in prima interventie... statul texas, la o populatie ceva mai mare ca a ro, iaca ce fel de legislativ are: Main article: Legislature of Texas The Legislature of Texas, like the legislature of every other state except Nebraska, is bicameral.
