summarize the Republican Party Agenda on the issue with citation to sources; [2 points each topic]
propose what you believe is a workable solution for all Americans on the issue. This is your opinion and therefore no citation is required. [2 points each topic]
How do you feel that federal response to the Covid19 crisis has been handled. This is a personal opinion so no citation is needed. [2 points] What do you propose the country do during the winter months to contain and control the spread of the virus. This should be based on data and the source needs to be cited. [5 points]
