Problem
What are the factors that influence which problems get addressed by our state and federal legislatures? Do the political ideologies of the elected official, the media, public opinion, or the stance of business or other interest groups influence how a policy topic is approached and acted upon? Relate your discussion to appropriate theories located in your text or the literature.
Base your discussion on one of these policy areas:
1) immigration policy; 2) environmental policy; or 3) health care policy.
The response should include a reference list. Double-space, using Times New Roman 12 pnt font, one-inch margins, and APA style of writing and citations.
