On February 25, Kentucky FFA members spent the day at the Kentucky State Capitol for their Legislative Program, learning firsthand how advocacy and leadership connect to agriculture. Members heard from leaders of the House Agriculture Committee, learned about the legislative process from Kyle Kelly with Kentucky Farm Bureau, attended a House Agriculture Committee meeting, and met directly with legislators to share the importance of agricultural education and FFA. The day also included tours of the Kentucky History Museum and the Old Capitol Building.
