Internships

I accept interns for work in my offices in Everett and Washington, D.C. Applicants should be eager to learn more about the legislative process and want to be part of a hardworking team dedicated to serving Northwest Washington.



Intern Program

Interns in my offices have the opportunity to learn about day-to-day functions of the U.S. government and how my office helps constituents.

Interns will lead Capitol tours, answer phones, attend committee hearings or briefings, assist constituents and write Congressional correspondence. This internship provides an opportunity to work closely with legislative staff and assist with various projects.

Internships in my Everett and Washington, D.C. offices are available year-round. 



Qualifications

Applicants must be undergraduate students who have completed at least one term, graduate students or recent graduates. Preference will be given to applicants with strong ties to the Second District and who are able to intern full time. All internships are paid and available for college credit if approved by the college or university.

Interns should be interested in the legislative process and have excellent writing and research skills, a positive attitude and a willingness to complete tasks as assigned. Interns should be willing to work on a variety of assignments and have the ability to work both independently and as part of a team.
