Bill Study

Specialty Roles Biz'

• ​Scheduling task for executive, maj/min and chair/ranking members
• Voting Procedure for Whips
• Mock bills due at the end of class for experts and lobbyists

Senate Sport Cards
The laminator is broken (yell at Starbuck for letting her students use it!).  We have ordered a new one, and it should be here by the middle of this week.  Regardless, your sports cards are still due TODAY.  Hard copies give to me- I will put them in a file for safekeeping.  Digital copies send to me, correctly sized, and I will print them in color for you.

Work Division on Bills
I would like each student to send me an individual email telling me exactly which sections you worked on in your bill, and what you accomplished.  If you feel your partnership was uneven in the workload division, now is the time to let me know.  If you want me to consider this, I need to have this email in my inbox by the end of class.

Bill Study
I will give you the selection of bills that was chosen for each committee.  Our goal today is to get a broad understanding of what is proposed in each of the chosen bills that we will be debating, and a very specific and comprehensive understanding of what is proposed in the bill for your committee.  All bills and instructions for the bill study are linked on the Docs page of my DP.

• Complete Step 1 in groups of 4 for all three bills
• Complete Step 2 individually
• We'll come together the last 20 minutes of class to do a Q and A with the authors of the bills
