Yesterday (Wednesday), District 11 Representative Craig Williams (R-Manning) welcomed local FFA members to the Iowa House of Representatives for the 41st annual Legislative Symposium and FFA Day at the Capitol. The program, hosted by the Iowa FFA Association, was created to build character and promote citizenship, volunteerism, and patriotism in its members. Students from the Carroll Area, Glidden-Ralston, and IKM-Manning FFA chapters met with Williams to learn about the legislative process, discuss issues facing the agricultural industry, and encourage their representatives and senators to continue supporting ag education and the FFA. An estimated 700+ students from more than 100 chapters throughout Iowa attended Wednesday’s symposium. Photos from the local chapters’ visits are included below.
