Throughout its history, the National League of Cities (NLC) has been an advocate for local authority. In recent years, NLC has worked to both track and research local authority trends as well as provide resources for localities and states on this topic. Since 2019, NLC has partnered with the Center for Public Health Law Research (CPHLR) at Temple University Beasley School of Law to track and understand state-level preemptions of local authority.
