Thanks to the generosity of donors, UNICEF and its partners helped save the lives of countless children suffering from hunger, malnutrition and disease in the region and reverse the famine in Somalia. As encouraging as these results are, the humanitarian crisis is far from over. Fast Fact.
In the South Carolina state election of 1832, attention focused on the issue of nullification, the concept that a state could ignore or refuse to apply federal laws.
While nullification is an attempt to declare federal law unconstitutional and to forbid its enforcement within the state, some other actions by the states do not attempt to declare federal law invalid, but instead use other means in an effort to prevent or hinder enforcement of federal law.
