Congressman Jim Baird recently visited Monrovia Middle School to engage with sixth-grade students in their social studies class. He offered insights into the legislative process, shared the significance of civic engagement, and discussed the responsibilities of elected officials. During the session, students had the opportunity to ask questions and learn about the law-making process, congressional operations, and the role of citizens in a democracy.

“It’s always encouraging to see young Hoosiers taking an interest in how our government works, and I hope that this can inspire the next generation of leaders,” said Congressman Baird. “These students are the future of our country, and it’s important they understand that their voices matter and that they can make a difference in their communities. It was an honor to meet with these bright young students, share stories of my time serving in the U.S. House of Representatives, and discuss the importance of public service, integrity, and leadership.”
