Judicial issues is a topic area that United States extempers face, usually at NFL Districts and the NFL National Tournament, although it is also a topic that can find itself used at local and state tournaments as well. The judicial branch is one of the three branches of the U.S. national government and plays a vital role in defining the U.S. Constitution and weighing in on heated political, social, and economic issues. This topic brief will break down some of the major issues that extempers might have to discuss on the judicial issues topic area and things they want to keep in mind when answering these questions.
How Senator Lautenberg’s Death Makes the Senate Even Less Functional
While Extemp Central has had a Twitter for the better part of four years, I admit that I have not effectively used it for the site, mostly out of general ignorance for what it does. I’m starting to learn, though, so not only will we be using it to update readers about new content on the site or connect extempers with other community and national circuit news, but we will also retweet major news stories that extempers may want to read/put in their files. Extemp Central already follows hundreds of news feeds from across the nation, so we can retweet select stories that we think are of some use to the extemp community. I hope that by doing this Extemp Central can be a useful resource for students collecting and filing articles, in addition to the other content offered on the website.
