During her visit, she did a presentation for Mr. Wronko’s social studies class about her job as a state senator and how a bill was created and passed through the New Jersey’s Legislature.
In addition, Jennifer Beck explained that she proposed bills to be passed in the
legislature that would create new jobs and help people who were unemployed. She also encouraged the students to continue their education and even get involved with politics.

4. Do you think that there should be more women serving in the
government and how would you encourage the young women today to get
involved?
5. Do you feel that our current governor will consider the vice
presidency or a cabinet position?
6. Was there any legislation that passed that you did not agree with?
7. How did you get involved in politics?
8. When you were going to school, did you ever think about being a
State Senator?
9. Did you find it stressful while running for the State Senate?

Jr. Middle School for having her do a presentation and the students
really enjoyed it. Thank you Ms. Beck.
