Essay / Research Paper Abstract
11 pages in length. Law - from conception to implementation - requires a long, complex process that is often sidetracked by any number of obstacles. To traverse the intricate weave of internal avenues a bill must travel in order to become a law is to appreciate the tremendous effort involved with establishing the governing properties of America's collective states. The extent to which lawmaking is paramount to the progress of a civilized society is both grand and far-reaching; that policy development and legislation share a common denominator toward this goal speaks to a process both multifaceted yet justified in its extensive intricacy.
