INDIANAPOLIS — State Rep. Ryan Lauer (R-Columbus) recently welcomed local 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 Lauer on the House floor to witness and learn about the legislative process.
“This is an excellent learning experience that could generate interest in students pursuing a government career or even running for office,” said Lauer.
Page positions are still open for students ages 13 to 18 to sign up and spend a day at the Indiana Statehouse during the 2023 legislation session. Those working as a page receive an excused absence from school and can participate in groups. Opportunities to work as a page are available on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays throughout the session, which must conclude by the end of April. Students are responsible for their lunch, and transportation to and from the Statehouse.
