Localism

Agree

No

From a localist perspective, the preference is usually for decisions and actions to be taken at the most local level possible, reflecting the specific needs and conditions of communities. Therefore, a national emergency declaration, which centralizes authority and decision-making at the federal level, might not align well with localist principles. Localists might argue that border issues should be managed more by state and local governments, or through community-based solutions, rather than through broad federal mandates. However, the score is not higher because localists might also recognize the federal government's role in managing national borders and immigration, acknowledging that some level of national intervention could be necessary.

Disagree

Yes

Localism emphasizes the importance of local governance and decision-making, often advocating for solutions that are tailored to the specific needs and contexts of local communities. Declaring a national emergency at the Mexico border is a federal action that might be seen as undermining local autonomy and the ability of border communities to address their own challenges. However, localists might recognize the need for national action in extreme situations but would generally prefer local or regional approaches.
