Just got off the phone with Senate Education Chairwoman Jill Tokuda about a story I’m working on and stumbled on this bit of fun news: She will be wearing some ugly pajamas at the Capitol tonight.

The jammies are to help her get in character for a “Who Killed the Bill?” game some 60 students will be playing this evening to learn about how and why bills die.

The game is part of Kanu Hawaii‘s Youth Fellows Pizza & Policy event, which is designed to educate young people about the legislative process — and make it fun. This is the second year they’ve done this, Tokuda says, and the event is open to anyone from elementary school through college.

Last year, about 100 students participated in an “Amazing Capitol Race” and had to visit various legislators’ offices and interview them to find clues. This year, Tokuda and the planning committee created a fake bill about nap time in schools. There are five potential suspects on who killed the bill during conference committee, and the students have to interview lawmakers and vote before they can get their pizza.

“It’s a Friday night, so you have to make it fun or they’ll never come back,” she said.
