Reichert Seeks High School-Age Volunteers as Youth Advisors
U.S. Representative Dave Reichert is looking for local youth to help him represent Mercer Island and the Eastside.
Congressman Dave Reichert (WA-08) announced last week the formation of a youth-focused advisory board made up of high school students residing in the Eighth Congressional District.
“I’m excited to form the Youth Advisory Board because young people are impacted greatly by the decisions of policymakers at all levels of government – their voices should be heard,” said Reichert. “Participants will learn about public policy and I am eager to exchange ideas and hear their feedback. These students’ unique perspective will be valuable as I continue working to find long-term solutions to the problems that face their families, their community, and this country. I look forward to working with these bright young people who call the Eighth District home.”
To learn more, interested students should contact or inquire with their teachers and administrators, who have already been notified of the opportunity.
