Paper details:Paper Instructions:

Select an elected state or federal official (legislator) and examine this legislator’s position on a current health care bill of your choice. Following the assignment guidelines below, develop an interview paper as if you were going to interview the legislator.

Your mock interview paper should include:

A description of the legislator’s background and history of political involvement
A detailed summary of the legislator’s current political involvement, constituent groups, number of terms in office, committee responsibilities, and other leadership experiences
A description of the legislator’s current policy agenda or judicial interest
3–4 key interview questions that relate to the health care bill (legislation) you have chosen
Mock answers to your interview questions. Investigate the answers to your interview questions by looking at the legislator’s website, calling the legislator’s office and speaking with a member of the staff, and/or looking for information and quotes that relate to the legislator’s position on the legislation
Critical insights, analysis, and personal reflection
APA format (6th ed.), proper grammar, and references as appropriate
