Policy Brief #4

Order Description

For Modules/Weeks 3–7, you are expected to submit a –2-page paper (not including the title page, abstract, and reference page) in current APA format in which the May-
Can-Should model is applied in the context of the policy focus in the assigned module/week. Be certain to emphasize a focused analysis of a particular issue chosen
from the broader policy concentration for the assigned module/week. You must include citations from:

1. all of the required reading and presentations from the assigned module/week
2. all relevant sources from Modules/Weeks 1–2 (especially the “Biblical Principles of Government” article), and
3. 3–5 outside sources. NOTE: These sources should be focused on the problem and the piece of legislation, and you may find that you need more than just 3-5 sources to
adequately research and discuss these items.

Students often struggle with keeping the analysis needed for these policy briefs to just 2 pages of content at most (not counting the title page and references), and
it can be hard to see past one’s choice of wording to discover that there are indeed many ways to say the same thing with less words. Attached are “before and after”
samples of the same policy brief; the first was too long and includes edits of how to shorten it, and the second shows the finished product at 2 pages. Review these
before writing your first policy brief.
The legislation needs to be related to energy. No more than two pages please. Please follow the same concept as the previous policy briefs. Thank you!
