From North Carolina General Assembly

 

Emma Tucker, a student at Washington High School and a student at the North Carolina School of Science and Mathematics this fall, recently served as a Page for the North Carolina House of Representatives. She is the daughter of CJ Tucker and Dallis Tucker and was sponsored by Rep. Michael Speciale (R), Craven. Tucker was appointed and introduced to the Members of the House during session on Monday night.

The North Carolina House Page Program offers a unique and firsthand experience to students from across the state. Each year, the program provides a captivating insight into government by connecting students with elected leaders of North Carolina. Pages are given the opportunity to observe North Carolina lawmakers, lobbyists, staff and constituents working together in the legislative process. The Pages witness and learn how a bill becomes a law, the structure of state government and the legislative process. House Pages attend session and committee meetings each day. House Pages are also given the opportunity to provide office assistance to members and staff of the House of Representatives.
