Calling all residents: Neighborhood Day at the State Capitol is on Jan. 26

The 56th State Legislature will soon be called to order and, if you’ve ever wondered what goes on during the legislative session, join the City Council for Neighborhood Day at the State Capitol. It’s happening from 8:30 to 10:30 a.m. on Thursday, Jan. 26, at the Arizona State Senate, 1700 W. Washington St., in Phoenix.

Attendees can meet City Councilmembers, learn about Tempe’s legislative program and get acquainted with their Arizona legislative representatives. Participants will also have time for self-guided tours after the program.
