Pages are high school juniors who are hired by the House of Representatives to live, work, and study in Washington, D.C. A Member of Congress, through their appropriate leadership office, must nominate all Page candidates.
Pages are employees of the House and their duties consist primarily of delivering correspondence, legislative material, and small packages within the Congressional complex. A few Pages are assigned to answer the phones in the Members' Cloakrooms, take messages for Members, call them to the phone if they are in the House Chamber, and prepare for House Floor sessions. Still others monitor a telephone bank of incoming requests for Page service.
