About the Event

CASC, in partnership with Connecticut General Assembly, is proud to announce its Second Annual Mock Legislative Session Day in the Capitol Building. 

 

Mock Legislative Session Day is a hands on opportunity for student council/government members from across Connecticut to work with the Connecticut General Assembly staff and legislators to learn how a bill becomes a law. Students will experience the bill analysis, fiscal analysis, and the process of putting a bills intentions into legal language, in preparation for Mock Session.  

 

On Mock Legislative Session Day students will be broken into "Majority" and "Minority" caucuses which will be led by fellow student leadership. These groups will then work with CGA staff to decide if they support or oppose bills and how to prepare for them before getting to the house floor where students will debate their mock legislation on the House Floor.

 

This is an incredible educational experience giving student council/government members the opportunity to gain a better understanding of the legislative process in a hands-on way. 

  • This educational experience is $15.00 for students from CASC Schools and includes lunch and all necessary supplies.

  • Students will be discussing, debating and amending 7 student driven topics of local or state concern.

  • Students should be interested in entering a public service profession or seeking public office in the future.

  • The program includes 1 mandatory zoom orientation meeting before the live event in Hartford
