Jeff Tate visited Northeast Middle School at the invitation of Mrs. Bailey Perry to speak with students about current state legislation and the role of government.

During the session, Senator Tate provided an overview of how bills are introduced, debated, and passed at the state level. He also discussed key legislative priorities for the current session, including education funding, public safety, and infrastructure improvements.

Students were eager to engage, asking thoughtful questions on a wide range of topics. The discussion covered issues such as how laws impact local communities, the importance of civic participation, and what it takes to pursue a career in public service.

Mrs. Perry expressed appreciation for the visit, noting that opportunities like this help students better understand how government works and encourage them to become informed, active citizens.
