Senator John J. Bonacic met recently with Russian exchange students in his Middletown District Office. The students, in America as part of the Open World Program, and through Rotary International, discussed with Senator Bonacic his experience as a public servant in the United States, and the intersection of business and politics in the United States. The Open World Program is administered through the Open Leadership Center, and allows students from Eastern Europe to engage and interact with public officials in the United States, through various student exchange programs.
