TALKING POINTS:

The Talking Points bulletin is located at the head of our publication.

Each edition poses one to two inquiries on topical political issues in Washington or the international arena and begs input from anyone willing to submit it.

Example Inquiry: Should the United States’ continue to take an official position on a two-state solution to the Israeli-Palestinian Crisis?

Submissions are collected and a series of the most articulate and persuasive entries are printed. Submissions should not exceed 1000 characters.
