Option 1: Political scientists disagree on the exact causes of low representation of women in Congress. Why do you think there are so few women in Congress in comparison to men? How likely is it that these patterns of representation will dramatically change over your lifetime? For this discussion question, you will have to do some research online.

Option 2: In Week 5, you learned how a bill becomes a law. Provide an example of a public health policy. This can come from any area, such as vaccinations, nutrition and food safety, drugs, environmental protection, tobacco use, infectious disease control, or occupational health and safety. Describe the importance of public health policy on the national and state levels.
