POLICY ANALYSIS PAPER
Papers should be 3 pages in length (not including the references or appendices) and should include at least 2-3 citations from the professional literature, relevant data, websites, or key informants. For all specific facts, you include, provide citations.

The policy may be enacted or proposed legislation (e.g., already introduced into the legislature but not passed); an executive order; or a proposal by a politician, political party, or advocacy organization. This assignment is written as if the policy is proposed, but you may be analyzing an existing policy.
Each paper must be typed and double-spaced, with numbered pages. Use 1″ margins on all sides and use Times New Roman 12 pt. font size.

Remember to cite all key facts and opinions in the text and ensure that all of these are included in the References section of the paper.
