Abstract:

A growing concern among municipal officials across the U.S. is that their policymaking capacity is under attack by state legislatures who are increasingly likely to preempt those municipalities. However, determining the extent to which municipalities are preempted is challenging. We overcome this by surveying a large sample of municipal officials from across the U.S. We find that officials from municipalities that are more ideologically distant from their state overall are more likely to report being preempted by their state government. Moreover, this pattern is driven by more liberal municipalities in both Republican and Democratic states reporting higher rates of preemption. Additionally, municipalities under unified state governments are more likely to report preemption, especially those under unified Republican control. These findings have important implications for the quality of representation in our federalist system and indicate that preemption is not just an issue between Republican states and liberal urban cities.

Text:

This Stata do file runs all of the analyses presented in the tables in or mentioned in the text of the research article and the supplementary appendix. This Stata do file does not produce any of the figures. Please note that since noise has been added to the independent variables, the results will not perfectly replicate those presented in the final version of the paper. The added noise will also lead to bias in the estimates and larger standard errors. However, the results are still in the same direction as those in the final version of the paper.
