LEARN MORE: What's the difference between a policy agenda and a legislative agenda?

Policy agenda: A set of issues or topics that a government, organization, or individual aims to address or prioritize. It outlines the goals and priorities for action in a particular area, such as disability, education, or the economy.

Legislative agenda : Focuses on the proposed laws or bills that a government or legislative body intends to introduce, debate, and potentially pass within a given time frame, it deals specifically with the legislative or lawmaking aspect of addressing policy issues.

The policy agenda is the big picture of what needs attention, while the legislative agenda zooms in on the specific laws that will be considered to address those issues.
