Today’s meeting with the President of the National Legislative Assembly, Ruben Orellana, was very impressive. President Orellana provided an overview of the National Legislative Assembly, a unicameral representative legislative body consisting of 84 members responsible for making the laws of the country. The members are elected by a direct popular vote; 64 members have proportional representation and are elected by the country’s 14 corresponding departments (like our states) and 20 members are elected on the basis of a single national constituency.
Adam lead the meeting for the delegation.
We all got to sign the guest book documenting our visit while President Orellana looked on.
