Simulation Assignment #2

Simulation Assignment #2: Member Profile By this point in the simulation, each of you is assigned to play the role of a member of the United States House of Representatives. In order to play the part as thoroughly as possible, your first assignment is to draft a profile of your member of Congress. The profile should be written as if the member him/herself actually did the writing (so it should be written in the first person (for example: “I am a member of Congress from the second district….”). Your profile should include the following information: • The member’s personal background (age, race, gender, religion, education, occupation, legislative style, etc.) • The location, size, and population demographics of the member’s congressional district • The main industry or enterprise within the member’s district, if any • The member’s primary concerns and issue positions (stances on public policy) • The length of time the member has serviced in Congress You should be able to find all of this information on the representative’s webpage and/or through simple Google searches.
