Overview
Laws and regulations govern the context around the operation of all jobs. Identify some way in which a law or some regulation specifically affects the work of a congressional office. Use the following questions
What is the law? What is the jurisdiction of the law (international, national, state, regional, local, etc.)?
How does it affect congress’s internal operations? Does adhering to the law result in costs on the office?
- Who enforces the law and how? What are the consequences for breaking the law? Does the law achieve its goals?
