Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
Bills are prefixed with HR when introduced in the House of Representatives and S when introduced in the Senate.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
A face-to-face meeting with legislators and their staff is generally an effective lobbying strategy. Appointments are set up ahead of time. The nurse should prepare a short, well-written statement of what legislative action is preferred and why, specifying the direct impact it will have on the legislator's constituents.
