"Social policy may be defined as any formal government enactment that affects the well-being of people, including laws, regulations, executive orders, and court decisions."

For the policy project, it's easiest to focus on legislation (a bill = a proposed law). Talk with your professor if you'd like to focus on a different policy type such as a federal agency regulation or international agreement/treaty.
Note: Summer consultations should be arranged via email.
If selecting state-level legislation, focus only on the state where you are registered to vote.
