Special briefings and tours of government agencies are arranged, and through the Congressional Intern Lecture Series, students are able to attend weekly seminars on the legislative process, the issues facing Congress, and special guest lectures from members of Congress. Additionally, students are encouraged to keep up with the Senate and committee schedules and may attend any hearings that are of particular interest or watch floor proceedings from the Senate gallery. Interns will be responsible for their own food, housing, and transportation. Additional information on housing and transportation in the District of Columbia and Northern Virginia will be provided with notification of an internship. While in Washington, interns represent Senator Sessions and the state of Alabama and are thus expected to maintain a standard of good behavior and a neat appearance in the workplace.
Appropriate attire includes a coat and tie for men and dress pants, skirts, or dresses for women.
Please complete and return the intern application by February 1. Applications will be reviewed as they are received and notification of internships will be made by the end of February.
