David Mun, a dedicated sophomore at Woodinville High School, recently participated in the page program for Sen. Derek Stanford, where he had the unique opportunity to draft a mock bill aimed at limiting opioid prescriptions.

This emphasis on youth involvement is vital for fostering informed future leaders who are equipped to tackle pressing societal issues. Overall, David’s story serves as an inspiring example of how young people can make a difference in their communities through active participation in government.
