Internships

My office has opened applications for full and part-time congressional internships in the Fond du Lac and Washington, DC offices. Students interested in applying should be motivated, detail oriented, display a strong work ethic, and interact well with constituents. In addition, applicants should have a strong interest in the legislative process and the function of Congress.
