What a great opportunity for our young people! Looking good 4-H'ers! Thank you @SenCapito for taking the time to learn about these amazing youths! 🍀
Great to meet this impressive group of @4H students from across WV.
4-H provides leadership opportunities and meaningful instruction for our young people, which is why I was proud to cosponsor the Youth Lead Act.
This bill would provide $5 million in funding to the @USDA to support and strengthen youth organizations like 4-H.
Thank you, @SenCapito for stopping by to greet these future firefighters. We are glad you enjoyed your visit!
