Presentation

5:10 → 9:06(3m 56s)

A senator (speaker 2) opened the session with a reflection on Holi, describing the festival of color and connecting its themes of spring, community, and shared humanity to the Senate's work. The speaker said the ritual’s symbolism—‘willing to be marked by the vibrant varied colors of the people we serve’—should inspire a commonwealth approach to public service.
