Proposal Argument Wrap-up
In the end, the thing to remember about a proposal argument is that you are focusing on 1 SPECIFIC ISSUE and will propose a solution to help eliminate—or at least reduce—the current issue.
See the sample thesis and outline structure below to provide ideas as to what will be expected when you submit your E1 Proposal Argument OUTLINE for my review. [I expect you to come up with YOUR OWN thesis and essay map. Do not plagiarize mine.]

Using Emotional Appeals -- Proposal Argument Essay
Essay 1—Emotional Appeals
In ENGL101, we will focus one of our writings on arguing for a change. When arguing for change, you must realize that a standard already exists regarding the topic: apathy, confusion, anger, shame. As a writer, it is your job to identify the current policy on the topic, analyze what works and what doesn’t, and focus on how to approach the issue based on how the public currently feels about it. Using emotions to persuade a reader is perfectly acceptable, if they are logical and straight-forward.
Legal Reform on an Issue -- Proposal Argument Essay
Considering Proposing Legal Reform?
Be sure that you understand what is involved in
legal reform before including it in your proposal essay.
Use the handouts

Proposal Argument
In the past, students have asked about the possibility of including
legal reform in their proposal argument essay.

BASICS FOR PROPOSAL ARGUMENTS
A proposal argument requires you to (1) research a social issue, (2) learn about current steps being taken to alleviate the issue, and then (3) form your own opinion on what needs to be done to eliminate the issue—since the current strategies are not showing signs of relief on the issue yet.
