STATEHOUSE (April 25, 2023) – State Reps. Julie Olthoff (R-Crown Point) and Ed Soliday (R-Valparaiso) recently welcomed Porter County students to the Statehouse where they participated in the Indiana House Page Program during the 2023 legislative session.
As pages, the students assisted lawmakers and staff with daily duties, toured offices of all branches of government in the Statehouse, and joined Olthoff and Soliday on the House floor to witness and learn about the legislative process.
"It's great to see local students taking interest in state government," Olthoff said. "Pages learn so much during their time at the Statehouse while gaining hands-on experience."
These area students served as pages during the 2023 legislative session:
"This is a rewarding opportunity for students to see how the legislative process works at the state level," Soliday said. "I always look forward to meeting the pages each session and I hope their experience sparks an interest in government and public service."
Soliday said students ages 13 to 18 should consider participating during the 2024 legislative session.
