State Senator Li Arellano Jr hosted his Fall Youth Advisory Council Monday at Sauk Valley Community College, bringing together more than 40 high school students from across the 37th District. Leland High School was represented by Seniors Laynie Wold and Kiley Mason, and Juniors Emma Elder and Rachel Dean. These students participated in creating potential legislation for the state of Illinois. These students will travel to Springfield in the spring to participate in a mock Senate hearing on the legislation that they created and voted on.
