Bergan encourages local students to apply for the 2021 Legislative Page program

State Representative Michael Bergan of Dorchester is encouraging area students to apply for the 2021 Iowa Legislative Page program.

Each year the Iowa General Assembly employs Iowa high school juniors and seniors from across the state to serve as Pages during the legislative session.  The duties of Legislative Pages vary slightly, but they include operating the chamber switchboard, assisting committee chairpersons, delivering messages, distributing legislation, and sorting amendments.  Pages are paid.  Many schools offer class credit for a student's work in the Legislature.

Applications for the 2021 Legislative Page Program are due no later than Friday, October 9th.
