STATEHOUSE (Oct. 16, 2025) – Indiana House Republicans are seeking student interns for the 2026 legislative session, according to State Rep. Brad Barrett (R-Richmond).
These paid, full-time internships are open to college students, recent graduates and students in graduate and law school. Barrett said the internship is a an opportunity to gain practical knowledge of state government through active participation in the legislative process.
“I hope students in our area will take advantage of this program,” Barrett said. “It offers hands-on learning, practical skills and an experience that truly influences their future.”
Interns will work in the Statehouse in downtown Indianapolis full time Monday through Friday during the legislative session, which starts in January and concludes in March.
Positions are available in legislative operations, policy and communications.
Barrett said interns will be paired with a staff member to work directly with an assigned group of state representatives. During this spring semester internship, students will have opportunities to interact with state legislators, state agencies and private sector organizations, as well as participate in a weekly speaker series featuring Indiana civic leaders.
Applications are available online at indianahouserepublicans.com/internship and are due by Oct. 31.
