Animas High School Model SenateThe Animas High School Model Senate Project was composed of three different parts. We were given a senator on either the Republican or Democratic side, I was given the senator Rand Paul from the republican party. We were then required to put together legislation on College Debt. When writing the bill I paired up with Sheldon Whitehouse (Henry Isenberg) and performed a bipartisan bill. The objective was to have in passed in Senate while each of the parties had the ability to amend certain sections in order for the to respectively vote for it on the Model Senate Floor. In doing this, I created a speech that would inform fellow Senators of the goal of the Bill. This required rhetorical and statistical based writing in order to persuade the Democratic party to vote for the bill. After committee voting my bill passed by adding three different amendments in order for it to make it to the floor. Model Senate Reflection |
