    UIL Congress,         "Congress is like first grade ... only not as well behaved."  -Maloney

2023 State Outstanding Presiding Officer

Want to debate legislation from inside the state capitol? This contest gives you the opportunity to see what it’s like to be a member of Congress by learning to effectively create and debate legislation with your fellow student representatives. Models the legislative process of democracy, the United States Congress. Within this mock legislative assembly, the students draft legislation, research bills and resolutions dealing with real-world social and political policies, deliver speeches and vote to pass or defeat the measures they have examined. Parliamentary Procedure forms structure for the discourse.
