STATEHOUSE (Aug. 26, 2024) – Applications to intern with Indiana House Republicans for the 2025 legislative session are now open, according to State Rep. Lindsay Patterson (R-Brookville).
The Indiana House of Representatives offers a spring semester internship at the Statehouse in Indianapolis during the legislative session, which will start in January and conclude in April. House interns earn $900 biweekly and work full time, Monday through Friday.
“Interns are mentored by professional staff members, help respond to constituents, assist in the policy-making process and prepare communications during the legislative session," Patterson said. “The House internship program gives college students and recent graduates a closer look at how state government works and how laws are made. I highly encourage eligible students who are interested to apply.”
Patterson said internships are open to college students and recent graduates of all majors. Interns get free parking, career and professional development assistance, enrollment access to an Indiana government class, and opportunities to earn academic credits through their college or university. Interns are also eligible to apply for a competitive $3,000 scholarship to use toward undergraduate and graduate expenses.
The program offers opportunities for students to work in various departments related to their studies, including legislative operations, policy and communications. Applications are available online at indianahouserepublicans.com/internship and are due by Oct. 31.
