GPA LECTURE COURSES

In this class, students will learn the advocacy and strategy tools needed to participate effectively in federal legislative and regulatory policymaking; as well as related issues such as the role of money in politics, lobbying disclosure and ethics.  We will examine both the nuts-and-bolts and the complex intricacies of policy development at the federal level, considering current and rapidly evolving topics as examples, while also drawing on historical precedents.  While some attention will be paid to legislative and regulatory policymaking, advocacy, and strategy at the state level, this course focuses primarily on the federal arena.
