This assignment asks you to provide a profile of one (1) current Texas state representative (House member) and one (1) current Texas state senator (Senate member).
- Go to the Texas Legislature website: http://www.capitol.state.tx.us . Select one (1) current Texas state representative and one (1) current Texas state senator (do not select members of the U.S. Congress). Your selections cannot be from your home district. Once you decide which state representative and state senator to profile, you will probably need to visit his/her own website to get all the necessary information. Write one or more paragraph(s) for each selected member of the legislature. Please use correct English with proper punctuation.
- For each state representative and state senator, give five (5) pieces of information:
- date first elected to office,
- date last elected to office,
- political party,
- highest level of education, and
- professional experience (occupation/work).
Note: If you are from another state and prefer to profile a state representative and state senator from your own state, you may do so. Visit your own state legislature’s website for the necessary information.
