BALTIMORE COUNTY - Six Baltimore County School seniors have been selected to serve as student pages for the 2023 legislative session of the Maryland General Assembly.
The MGA page program was created in 1970 by House Speaker Thomas Hunter Lowe. It was designed to foster student leadership, educate students about the legislative process, and promote youth interest in government.
The Student Pages will distribute materials and messages to legislators, maintain bill books, and assist visitors as they learn more about the legislative process.
During the 13 weeks of the legislative session, from the second week in January through early April, each page will serve for one week during the first half of the session and return for a second during the latter half.
The selected students are:
Each page is paid a stipend of $55 per day, worked to help defray expenses. The page office arranges for students from outside Anne Arundel County to stay in page housing near the State House for $25 per night.
I hope that the plan include walk paths, open spaces with seating to view nature and consequences for people littering, loitering and killing the wildlife.Â
I can’t believe these are our ‘leaders’. Drugs deals on every corner and in every parking lot. Johnny Clueless so concerned about low income earners, when they live better than the middle class. Garbage bags littered everywhere by mostly the people Johnny ‘entitled’ to county houses.
My concern about some of the logic being used here is that the problem isn't the plastic bags.
Let's talk about the people who are doing the littering. Full garbage bags placed on the streets and sideways. Garbage being thrown from cars and trucks. Pedestrians walking and eating..than throwing garbage on the ground. Dog walkers not picking up after their dogs. Etc..
