Trexlertown (also Trexlerstown) is an unincorporated community in Upper Macungie Township, Pennsylvania, United States. It lies in the Lehigh Valley between Breinigsville and Wescosville. Air Products & Chemicals is located adjacent to Trexlertown. The town also is the home of the Lehigh Valley Velodrome. Jeremiah Trexler obtained land adjoining that of his father in Upper Macungie Township, Bucks County, Pennsylvania, where he kept a tavern as early as in 1732. In 1734 a road was laid out from his tavern through North Wales in now Montgomery County to Philadelphia. As was the custom of the time, a village grew around the tavern, which came to be known as Trexlertown. -- 16:03, 12 March 2010 (UTC)
What is constitutional law?
Constitutional law attorneys handle cases involving the construction and interpretation of federal and state constitutions, including individual rights and governmental powers. Constitutional law cases can involve issues like First Amendment rights -- such as freedom of speech, press, and religion -- and the checks and balances on authority among different branches of government. Most of the federal constitutional rights are found in the Bill of Rights, that was created originally as a limitation on the action by the federal government, but many of those rights are also applicable to the states through the Fourteenth Amendment.
