Description: The Washington State Legislature is now accepting applications from sophomores and juniors for PAID internships Internships are available for each legislative session (winter and spring) beginning in January. Students will be assigned to work in legislative offices in Olympia. This is a credit bearing internship and an excellent professional development and academic opportunity. Interns are paid a minimum of $750 per month and receive free parking or a bus pass.

In addition to their office work, interns participate in weekly academic seminars and workshops. The seminars include meeting with state officials, as well as panel discussions. In the workshops, interns take part in a budget exercise, mock hearing, and mock floor debate. They learn parliamentary procedure and how to write for the legislature. Additionally, interns have the opportunity to shadow an elected official or administrator of a state agency and learn about his/her job internship.
