HARRISBURG – This month’s local TV report by Senator David G. Argall (R-29) features a recent trip to Harrisburg by Pottsville Area High School seniors. During their recent visit to the state Capitol, the senior class joined Argall as well as Representatives Neal Goodman (D-123), Jerry Knowles (R-124) and Mike Tobash (R-125).
During the visit, the legislators discussed a typical day in Harrisburg, review their roles in the Senate and House, and invited students to participate in a question-and-answer period. The event took place in the Senate Majority Caucus Room, where many students sat in actual seats of Senators where legislative meetings and discussions are frequently held.
“The students asked engaging questions about current events,” Argall said. “I always enjoy hosting local schools in Harrisburg, especially when we can engage in an open dialogue about their issues and concerns. The students showed an impressive understanding of state issues and affairs.”
