 In a 1-2 page policy memo, drawing on the readings and lecture, address issues of policy definition based on the case study: “Starbucks: Opposing a Local Tax to Address Homelessness while Promoting Social Justice.”  Be sure to address the following questions but remember this is a policy memo, so do not list the questions followed by an answer.
