In our class we had a visit from a state
representative Jamie Pederson. When he came we learned a lot about what he does
as a representative, like how he works for the 43rd district in
Washington. We also learned that the schools get half of the state’s money that
they earned from taxes. Jamie works in
the capital of Washington State, Olympia. In the capital they vote about laws.
We also learned that there are 49 different districts and that there is about 137,000
people living in each district. We had a great time learning all these cool
facts and we hope he comes to visit again soon.
