1. Identifying Your Legislators: Find out who your legislators are at the state level. Use a google search to locate your state’s legislative system, or here is a helpful link in which you can identify your officials- https://www.usa.gov/elected-officials

You only need one legislator that you are going to address your issue to. If email information is not available then you would only place their physical address. In rare cases a physical address is not listed, please include webpage address.

Record their name, title, and contact information here:

2. Issue Description with Scholarly Support: Identify a current nursing issue important to you and your practice. Locate at least 2 scholarly articles (dated within the past 5 years) to support your thoughts, include them in the description with appropriate in-text citations, and list in correct APA format. Do not copy and paste directly from the internet. For full credit, include two in-text citations from scholarly articles dated within past 5 years. “Scholarly articles” are only classified as peer-reviewed journal articles are written by scholars or professionals who are experts in their fields. Magazine articles, administration documents, reports from different kinds of organizations, essays, opinion pieces, or Wikipedia resources are not scholarly articles.

Here are examples of how to cite an article in an electronic journal:

Author, A. A., Author, B. B., & Author, C. C. (Year). Title of article.  Title of Periodical,  Volume number(Issue number), pages.  https://doi.org/xx.xxx/yyyy

Baniya, S., & Weech, S. (2019). Data and experience design: Negotiating community-oriented

          digital research with service-learning.  Purdue Journal of Service-Learning and

           International Engagement,  6(1), 11-16.  https://doi.org/10.5703/1288284316979

Provide a short description of the issue (1-2 paragraphs are sufficient) with scholarly support:

4. Writing the E-mail: Write an e-mail explaining the importance of this issue to your practice. Limit the e-mail to one page. Choose details you developed above; use the ones that you think create the strongest and most persuasive e-mail. Remember to include a personal example from your practice.

Follow the format of the sample e-mail located in the assignment instructions in Canvas. (The format must be strictly followed, especially for how to address the legislator and inclusion of information that classifies you as a constituent.)

Be sure to edit your e-mail for spelling, grammar, and word usage. Read it aloud, and/or get a friend or relative to read it and provide feedback . You will not be sending this to your legislator as part of this assignment but you may choose to send it to them on your own to make them aware of the issue you have addressed.

Space for you to write your final e-mail to your legislator: Type directly below.
