Senate Page ProgramFor more than 100 years, messengers known as Pages have served the United States Congress. Pages are appointed and sponsored by a member of Congress and must be high school juniors and at least sixteen years old. Senate Page duties consist primarily of delivery of correspondence and legislative material within the Congressional complex. Other duties include preparing the chamber for Senate sessions, and carrying bills and amendments to the desk. Pages also attend classes in the early morning at the United States Senate Page School. Contact Senator Lautenberg's office at 202-224-3224 for more information on applying to be a Senate Page. For specific questions about the Page School, contact Mrs. Kathryn Weeden, Principal of the U.S. Senate Page School, at 202-224-3926. Read a report on the Congressional Page Program.

Honor Hard Work with a Higher Minimum Wage The federal government is supposed to work for the people of the United States. Unfortunately, the Republican-dominated 109th Congress has failed to address some of the most urgent needs of the American people. There is no energy policy to reduce our dependence on oil. There have been no measures to curb the soaring cost of health care. And this month Congress adjourned for August recess without approving a long-overdue pay raise for the millions of Americans who work for minimum wage. |
