All students are required to identify and evaluate one public policy or law considered by the Texas state legislature during its 2019 or 2021 legislative session.
Students are free to select a policy they find interesting or to select a policy that potentially impacts their political, religious, or ideological beliefs. Evaluating a policy consists of:
• defining the problem,
• finding out what solutions are being proposed by different groups,
• identifying what (if anything) government does to solve the problem,
• explaining why government is expected to solve this problem, and
• explaining what difference various proposed solution will make to those affected by the policy.
