DAY 3
Hi Guys, My son is sick so I have to stay home with him today.  What's highlighted in yellow below is our plan for Tuesday.  Today I would like you to please either take notes for Tuesday's quiz AND/OR complete your next blog post which is due Tuesday.  The prompt is located on the google site.  You will be examining what Congress, California Senate or Legislative Assembly, or your local governments are doing to create legislation in your area of interest (gun rights, abortion, economy, healthcare, etc). 
I'll see you next week!  Have a nice weekend and as always be safe and make good decisions. --Ms.d
