Posted: February 21, 2024 | Senator Tipping

AUGUSTA ­­— On Tuesday, Sen. Mike Tipping, D-Penobscot County, welcomed Amelia Jacques of Lincoln to the Senate Chamber. Amelia served as an Honorary Page, and was accompanied by her parents.

“As the pace of the legislative session picks up, I am very grateful for Amelia using one of her school vacation days to serve as an Honorary Page,” said Sen. Tipping. “The Honorary Page Program is a unique opportunity for students to see how our government works. It’s great when parents can join us as well. If you know someone who would like serve as an Honorary Page, please drop me a line.”

On session days, the Senate Secretary’s Office manages the Honorary Page Program in the Maine State Senate. Pages perform various duties such as delivering messages, distributing documents within the Senate Chamber, interacting with State Senators, and – most importantly – taking part in a real world, legislative learning experience. To serve as an Honorary Page, contact Alex Ferguson at (207) 287-1540 or Alex.Ferguson@legislature.maine.gov.
