The 2022 Model Senate on The Foreign Relations Committee program will explore two topics of critical importance confronting the legislative branch of the United States. Students will examine, from the perspective of U.S. Senators and Expert Witnesses, the investigation of the Russian invasion of Ukraine and assess an appropriate U.S. response. The second topic will touch on the ever growing presence of China in the Middle East, with students exploring legislative opportunities to protect U.S. interests in the region.
Students in the 2022 Model Senate program will represent select Senators, Committee Co-Chairs, Expert Witnesses, and Journalists as they seek positive solutions to ongoing issues of national and international concern.
