Miller: Indiana Senate Republicans Offering Paid Internships

STATEHOUSE (Sept. 1, 2016) — The Indiana Senate Republican Caucus is offering paid, spring-semester internships in its legislative, legal, policy, communications and information technology offices during the 2017 session of the General Assembly, said State Sen. Pete Miller (R-Brownsburg).

Qualified candidates must be at least a college sophomore. Recent college graduates as well as graduate school and law school students are also encouraged to apply. Positions are open to Indiana residents and non-residents who attend a college or university located within the state.

Benefits include a $700 bi-weekly stipend, scholarship and academic credit opportunities, professional development, community involvement and networking.

Senate internships are full-time positions at the Statehouse in downtown Indianapolis that begin with a mandatory orientation in late December and conclude at the end of the legislative session in April 2017.

“Any college student interested in government or public service should apply for this internship,” Miller said. “Interns are vital to the legislative process, and the challenging work done at the Statehouse provides them with an opportunity to work closely with legislators and staff.”

Miller added that more information and applications for these full-time, spring semester internships with the Indiana Senate Republican Caucus can be found online at www.IndianaSenateRepublicans.com/intern-program.

The deadline to apply is Oct. 31.
