Interns working in the legislative office will work closely with the Senator’s policy team to help process constituent mail, support and research legislative initiatives, attend hearings and briefings, and draft constituent correspondence. They will be mentored by legislative staff on issues of interest to both the intern and to Washington state. Candidates should be strong writers and researchers, and are accepted from a wide variety of educational studies, including political science, social/public policy, science, agriculture, business and more.
