Your presentation needs an introduction, stating the research question and summarizing the policy topic (in general). The body of the paper should synthesize the sources you have used to research your topic. Compare the policy decisions of at least three states and how the policy problem is addressed and how it is working (objective information only here). Finish with a conclusion and any further research you think is needed in this area. You must include a full bibliography at the end of the presentation on the final slide(s).
