ATLANTA (January 27, 2023) | Sen. Blake Tillery (R – Vidalia) is calling for students age 12 and older to apply for the Senate Page Program for the 2023 Legislative Session. The Senate Page Program offers an opportunity for students to visit the State Capitol to observe and participate in the legislative process. Senate pages serve the Senators by delivering important information and message to them in the Senate Chamber during the legislative session day.
“Our Senate Page Program is a vital resource for our Senators during the legislative session,” said Sen. Tillery. “The Pages keep the information flowing to the Senators and without them, business would not be able to run as smoothly while Senators are in Chamber. Due to the COVID-19 Pandemic, the Senate Page Program has not been in place for the past three years so we are excited to have the program back in the Senate Chamber. With only 20 spots available, I encourage all young students in the area to apply for the page program as this is a great opportunity to get a front row seat to the legislative process.”
If you are interested in becoming a Senate Page, follow these steps below:
- Find your legislator on by visiting Openstates.
- Once you know your Senator’s name, visit our Senate Members page to get their contact information.
- Complete the Page Interest Form and send to your Senator’s Legislative Assistant via e-mail or fax. This form can be saved and attached to an e-mail. It can also be printed, scanned and then e-mailed as an attachment.
- Read more in the Page Welcome Packet.
Additionally, if you have further questions about the Senate Page Program, you can reach out to the programs Director, Kim Campbell or Assistant Director, Illana Burkhart, using the information below:
