Welcome to The Senate Site

To be honest, when I first heard the term “Senate Pages,” I thought the reference belonged to some paperwork in the back room. How wrong I was. Not only do Pages help organize all of the Senate Bill’s as they come, they work with the Secretaries to handle Senators signatures, remind Senators when it is their time to speak on the floor and distribute notes and paperwork throughout the Senate offices.

Joking that their official position at the Senate is the “staff gopher,” this group of ten women also organize staff lunches, decorate the office during holidays and bring much needed snacks for grateful individuals (much like myself).

“You see a lighter side (of Senate) and gain a respect for the men and women who are up here,” Deanne Evans said. “They are really good men and women who listen to their constituents and care very much about the constitution.”

Sharing much of these “lighter sides of Senate,” the women laughed as they reencountered their highlights of the Legislative Session (quite entertaining stories that you will not want to miss).

Listed below are this year's Pages:
