Congressman Kevin McCarthy has announced a forum for students in the 23rd Congressional District interested in attending a U.S. Service Academy. The event is scheduled for Saturday, September 23, 2017, 9:00am – 10:30am at the Kern County Board of Supervisors Chambers, 1115 Truxtun Ave.  The forum offers students and parents the chance to learn more about the application process, academy life and career opportunities within the various branches of the military. If interested, please RSVP by email at [email protected] or calling the Bakersfield Office at (661) 327-3611.

Hear ye, Hear ye.  The Mock Trial court case is in and it’s a murder case.  That’s right – some guy named Davidson decided his right to protest the recent ban on Tanterran immigration into the city of Acorn was more important than Thompson’s right to continue breathing.  Confused yet?  It’s a complicated case with some very important 1st & 4th amendment rights at stake.  Our meetings are on Thursdays - so there’s no time to waste!
