Rep. Blaine Wilhour recently took the time to meet with students from the Junior High Beta Club at Franklin Park School in Salem. The students had the opportunity to learn firsthand about the workings of the Illinois House of Representatives from the representative himself.

During the visit, Rep. Wilhour shared insights on his role in the legislature, giving the students a glimpse into what it is like to serve as a state representative. The students were able to engage with Rep. Wilhour and ask questions about the General Assembly, gaining valuable knowledge about the state government.

The setting of the meeting was fitting, as Rep. Wilhour spoke to the students under the watchful gaze of a portrait of Abraham Lincoln, a symbol of Illinois' rich political history. The visit provided a unique learning experience for the Franklin Park Junior High students, allowing them to connect with their state representative and deepen their understanding of the legislative process.
