US Government (Friday, March 31, 4th period)
"Hope you've all brought your bills with you for class discussion," Josh said when the Government class was seated.
"Pretend you are Senators from your home states. If you're not from this country, um, pretend that you're from Illinois. Because things need to play well in Peoria, right?" He laughed.
Yes, he's an enormous dork. Moving on.
"Ask question of the bill's sponsor--decide if this is something that your voters would support. Heck, you're the elected representative of them--decide if it's something you support."
He grinned. "And in keeping with the rules of the Senate, no name calling or hair-pulling. Long and boring speeches are encouraged."
He sat down and pointed at random to a student. "Let's get started. Wow me."
