4-H legislative connection [MARCH 13, 2000] Over 2,000 4-H members and their families took a crash course in state lawmaking during the 4-H Legislative Connection 2000 at the state capitol on Thursday, March 2. Four-H youth across Illinois who received Superior Award ratings at the Illinois State Fair last August were invited to display their projects and rub elbows with their Illinois legislators. The 4-H’ers took part in legislative workshops, toured the capitol complex and met with their legislators during the event.
