Just a Senator and His Shadows

ALBANY—State Senator Peter Oberacker (R/C-Schenevus) recently welcomed students from the 51st Senate District to the Capitol as part of the 24th annual “Students Inside Albany” conference sponsored by the League of Women Voters of New York State Education Foundation.

“Offering students an inside glimpse of state government is a positive way to start them on the road to public service, and I thank the League of Women Voters for continuing this constructive event,” said Oberacker. “Along with helping the students learn more about the role of a state senator, this was a terrific learning experience for me. This group of future leaders offered keen insights and came prepared with perceptive questions—I look forward to witnessing what they accomplish moving forward.”
