 The Sergeant at Arms is responsible for hiring and
supervising a staff of support clerks and full and part time messengers.
Part time messengers are Limited Term Employees (LTE) and are generally
employed only for the duration of the Legislative sessions.
Senate

to Senators' requests from the Senate floor during Legislative
sessions; assisting at committee hearings at the Capitol and
throughout the State; responding to requests from offices to run errands in the Capitol and out; help with bulk mailings,
specialized mailings and other various projects; and carrying out all
other directions given them by the Senate Sergeant and the Sergeant's
supervisory staff.
There
are currently six full time positions on the Senate Sergeant's
staff. Full time messengers are salaried, with regular State
benefits.
Senate messengers must be 18 years of age
