Responsibilities may include public engagement, legislative research, constituent management, community outreach, attending legislative meetings, scripting talking points and newsletters, writing bill summaries, assisting in culminating press releases, and administrative tasks as required.
Please note that this internship is for students enrolled in PUP 4947 for the Spring 2024 semester to be considered for this internship program.
