Consider Internships

As 2022 begins, my office looks forward to another year of serving the constituents of the Fourth District. Part of that service is showing the young people in our state how they can make a difference for our community. This week, we are excited to welcome a new intern from the University of Arkansas to my Washington, D.C., office for the Spring semester.

When I talk to high school and college classes, they often ask how to get a job in Washington or learn more about public service, and the answer is often an internship. Internships are a great resource for young people from any state to gain experience and make vital contacts in the city. Interns learn firsthand how to serve constituents, develop policy, and communicate with local and national audiences in a fast-paced environment by working closely with my staff.

Interns in my office will be exposed to a variety of viewpoints by working side by side with their colleagues across the aisle and from around the country. Interns will also be challenged to critically analyze policy and how it will affect the public, as well as give tours to constituents once the Capitol is open again. Anyone looking to one day work in government or learn more about public service would benefit greatly from the unique experience of living and working in our nation's Capital. My office is always looking for interns for future semesters. Those interested are welcome to reach out to my office at (202) 225-3772 with any questions and receive application information. Washington, D.C., will be a better place when we bring even more common sense, conservative values from the Fourth District here!
