Page/Posting from the Federal Register and brief summary…
Go to https://www.federalregister.gov/
This is the Federal Register, the published official announcements of the United States government. It includes official notices, rules, proposed rules, executive orders, funding announcements and other official announcements. Explore the site on your own and try to get a sense of how broad and detailed some of the activities of the US government are. You should be able to find many announcements on a broad range of topics, both current and/or recent.
For your assignment, take a screen shot of a published item/announcement (just the first page/screen with the title of the announcement). Paste the screen shot to a word document. Above the screen shot, write a few sentences summarizing and introducing the announcement.
If you have difficulty with the screen shot and word file, find a link to a PDF file at the Federal Register site – (test it to make sure it is valid). Copy and paste the link to a PDF announcement and above the link write a few sentences summarizing and introducing the announcement.
