RKYHS students had the privilege to hear from Mikie Sherrill, the Democratic candidate for Congress representing New Jersey’s 11th district. The former Navy helicopter pilot and former federal prosecutor and mother of four talked to the students about her stances on a variety of topics from Israel and gun control to the Iran deal, immigration and bi-partisanship.

The students asked informed, thoughtful and insightful questions, and impressed Sherrill with their knowledge of and engagement in politics and current events.
