My office has the privilege of nominating a candidate to the U.S House of Representatives 2011 Spring Page Program.

Pages assist Members with their legislative duties, deliver correspondence and small packages within the congressional complex, answer phones in the Member cloakrooms, and prepare the House Floor for sessions.

High school juniors with a GPA of 3.0 or higher in core academic subjects may apply to work as Pages. Applicants must be at least sixteen years old on the date they would begin their Page term.

Any eligible student is encouraged to apply by filling out the two applications found on my website, www.tsongas.house.gov, and submitting both applications via email toAmy.Greenwood@mail.house.gov in my office by 12:00PM on Monday, November 15th.
