Submitted by Legislative News: Washington House Democrats
Ethan Rutledge, a student at Tumwater High School, served as a page last week in the Washington State House of Representatives. Sponsored by State Rep. Jessica Bateman, D-Olympia, Ethan is the child of Christina VanCamp of Tumwater. Pages assume a wide variety of responsibilities, from presenting the flags to distributing amendments on the House floor. Pages support the efficient operation of the Legislature while also receiving daily civics instruction, drafting their own bills, and participating in mock committee hearings.
