Public Policy Analysis Assignment

Description

The product of this assignment is an original one (or at most two) page (less than 500 words, excluding references – Policy memos must be short or they won’t be read by busy politicians or voters!) persuasive public policy memo or editorial. The memo or editorial should be addressed to a specific real-world audience (e.g. a particular politician, newspaper, etc.). It should be written carefully and include a statement of the policy issue, your microeconomic argument (in language appropriate for your audience), and evidence to support your recommendation (e.g., a statistical finding that supports your proposal, a quote from a prominent economist, or other evidence).  Appropriately cite at least one source other than the Openstax and Economics for Life books on a separate page below your memo.
