OKLAHOMA CITY – Students in Miranda Edwards's U.S. History class at Lindsay High School paid a visit to the Oklahoma State Capitol May 11 to learn more about the legislative process and visit with their state legislators.
The group was recog nized from the floor of the Oklahoma House of Representatives by Rep. Cynthia Roe, R-Lindsay, and Sen. Jessica Garvin, R-Duncan.
"The students were really engaged and had a lot of questions that we were happy to help answer," Roe said. "For many of them, it was their first time visiting the State Capitol, which is always an exciting experience. I hope they walked away with a greater desire to engage in democracy."
The second session of the 58th Legislature must adjourn sine die no later than Fri., May 27, at 5 p.m.
