Sanctuary Cities and Federal Funding
Write a typed, double-spaced 5-8 page essay (do not submit handwritten essays). Please do not choose a subject you have already written about in class or for a previous essay. In addition, please do not write about abortion, capital punishment, euthanasia, animal testing, legalizing marijuana, or revoking the driver’s licenses of the elderly—I have already read plenty of papers on those subjects!
Think of something you do not like that is happening in your neighborhood, the city of Tucson, the state of Arizona, the U.S., or the world. Current political issues would make good topics. The subject should be something that you disagree with but believe can be changed, removed, abolished, enforced, reinstated, revised, or reconsidered. Write a paper to convince your reader to do something about the problem. Clearly explain the problem to your readers, show how it affects them, and tell your readers what they can do to help solve it. You may use one of the following examples or choose your own topic: the rising cost of college tuition, current political topics, immigration (legal or illegal or refugees), lack of good public transportation, or GMO food labeling laws. Make sure that the topic is manageable (neither too broad nor too narrow for a 5-8 page paper) and that you can find at least four sources related to your topic.
Criteria for Evaluation: Successful papers will
* Fully address the prompt
