(II)   Tasks
(a) Analysis of the Constitution
There are five (5) tasks for the Legal Process Project, as follows:
Legal Process Project Tasks:
(1) Analysis of the Constitution
Read and analyze the Constitution and Bill of Rights. Choose the institutional power and the personal right you believe to be the most important, and explain why; choose the institutional power and the personal right you would remove, and explain why; and add a power and a right that you would include, and explain why (two to four pages, double-spaced).
(2) Homeland Security Legislative Issues
Write a (4-6 page double spaced) legislative analysis of only 1 of the following bills from the  114th Congress. Your analysis should include consideration of the:

Legislative History
Agency Involvement
Cost Implications (CBO Score); and
Committee Reports
Pros and Cons of the legislation
Recommendation to the head of the agency on implementing the act
APA compliance to APA 6th including citations and reference page

Pick only 1 from the following:.
Public Law 114-268 First Responder Anthrax Preparedness Act

Report 114-251: Report of the Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs to accompany S. 1915
CBO Score: Implementation cost $4 million over 2016-2020 period. Enactment would no directly effect spending or revenues or increase net direct spending or on-budget deficits. It would not affect state, local, or tribal government budgets
Public Law 114-143 Integrated Public Alert and Warning System Modernization Act of 2015.

Report 114-73: Report of the Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs to accompany S. 1180
CBO Score: Implementation would cost $37 million over 2015-2020 period. Enactment would not impact direct spending or revenues.

(3) Identification of Two Pre-9/11 Homeland Security Events
As we study this new concept of “homeland security,” we quickly learn that threats to national security are not new. In fact, the United States faced major threats to its existence even before it was officially a nation. Identify and describe two such events in U.S. history that occurred prior to September 11, 2001, and explain why this event/threat was similar to current homeland security events.( Two pages double space)
(4) Legal Research Exercise
Beginning with Executive Order (EO) 13769 signed on January 21, 2017, analyze Trump’s travel ban in terms of the Supreme Court decisions, district court decisions, congressional actions, and presidential revision of the EO on March 6, 2017. Your paper should clearly discuss the EO’s possible impact on the National Security agenda of protecting citizens from foreign national terrorists while evaluating agency implementation, and the role federal, state, local, and tribal governments to support your argument. All requirements of prompt and format must be met to receive full credit.
Format:

4 page, typed, paper in APA format with proper citations.
Double-space
Times New Roman, 12 point font
References page (APA format)
Pros vs cons on the EO
Recommendation to your superior on the implementation
What will be the outcome by the Supreme Court and why

(e) Statute Draft
