STATEHOUSE – State Rep. Tim O’Brien (R-Evansville) welcomed area students who served as pages during the 2025 legislative session. Olivia Branch from Evansville, who attends Evansville Day school, andChris Sermersheim from Evansville, who attends Reitz Memorial High School, both paged during the legislative session.
The page program offers a unique hands-on opportunity for Hoosier students to gain a better understanding of the ins and outs of the legislative process while interacting with state leaders.
“The House page program is a great opportunity to experience state government firsthand and learn about the legislative process,” O’Brien said. “I enjoy engaging with students from my district and showing them around the Statehouse. All students interested in participating should apply next session.”
During their day as pages, Branch and Sermersheim interacted with and assisted lawmakers and staff, toured the Statehouse and joined O’Brien on the House floor to watch the legislative process in action.
Students ages 13 to 18 should consider serving as pages during the 2026 legislative session. Contact O’Brien’s Statehouse office at in.gov/h78 or 317-232-9759 for more information.
