Develop a Policy Brief
Students will develop a written Policy Brief utilizing the chosen state or federal bill selected in Assignment 1. A policy brief is a “short document providing findings and recommendations to an audience who may not be experts in an area of interest” which serves to give policy advice (DeMarco & Adams, 2014, p. 209). Nurse leaders can utilize a policy brief to explain a perceived problem to an administrator, constituents, and/or legislators. A policy brief provides a quick snapshot of the problem or the issue and a solution.
Assignment Criteria
- Develop a Policy Brief
- Utilize the selected bill from Assignment 1
- The assignment should be one or two pages excluding the title and reference page.
- Include a minimum of three (3) professional peer-reviewed scholarly journal references to support the brief (review in Ulrich’s Periodical Directory) and be less than five (5) years old.
- Include an APA formatted title and reference page.
- The brief can be single spaced using 12-pt Times New Roman font and one-inch margins.
- Submit the assignment to Turnitin Direct prior to the final submission, review the Originality Report, and make any needed changes.

Selected Bill:
Bruce’s Law
- Federal bill – A bill to establish an awareness campaign related to the lethality of fentanyl and fentanyl-contaminated drugs, to establish a Federal Interagency Work Group on Fentanyl Contamination of Illegal Drugs, and to provide community-based coalition enhancement grants to mitigate the effects of drug misuse.
- S. 4358 introduced June 8, 2022
- Primary sponsor: Lisa Murkowski, Co-sponsors: 2 Democrats, 1 Republican
- I chose this bill because I have cared for many patients with addiction to fentanyl. Majority of these victims became addicted due to consuming another drug that was laced with fentanyl without their knowledge. Education and awareness are important and could help reduce the number of victims to overdose from this lethal drug.
