Over the summer, my district office hosted 21 high school and college-aged interns who assisted my team with the different types of outreach we do to connect with and serve our constituents. My interns knocked on almost 20,000 doors in communities across the 26th District to share contact information from my office, promote community outreach events, and gather feedback from my constituents about the issues and priorities they’d like me to focus on in Springfield. The feedback we received was very eye-opening and will help to guide my work and legislative priorities. I am so thankful for all the hard work and dedication these young people demonstrated and am confident each of them will go on to do great things.
