HARTFORD – On Friday, April 5th, Torrington Middle School students visited the State Capitol Complex as part of their civics unit. The students were able to tour the Legislative Office Building, where most of the legislature’s hearings and committee work takes place, as well as the State Capitol. The group visited the Senate Chamber, where they were greeted by State Rep. Jay Case and State Sen. Lisa Seminara. The group then went to the House Chamber where they were able to ask lawmakers basic questions about the building and the lawmaking process.

“It was great welcoming the Torrington Middle Schoolers at the House Chamber. They asked some tough questions and had some interesting comments on how we can make Connecticut a better place to live. I hope they enjoyed learning about their state government,” said Case.
