Select a political issue that interests you and write a persuasive letter (persuade someone to do something) to an elected official. You can approach the letter in several ways. You can: Explain how an issue affects you. Express support for a proposed law, policy, or course of action. Oppose a proposed law, policy, or course of action. The individual you select doesn’t necessarily have to be someone representing you in local, state, national government (e.g., a letter to Florida’s governor when are a Texas resident), but they must influence the law, policy, course of action on which your letter focuses. For example, you would not write a letter to Texas Governor Gregg Abbott advocating for another Coronvirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (CARES) stimulus package bill, which is a congressional matter. Instead, you’d need to write the letter to a member of the U.S. House of Representative or Senate.

Instead, you are encouraged to summarize or paraphrase the author’s ideas from which you are adopting.
