A Washington Internship with Senator Baucus is an active, educational, and para professional experience in the United States Senate as a representative of Senator Baucus and the State of Montana. Interns are employed for each academic semester and during the summer months. Internships are available in my Capitol Hill office or in any of my Montana offices.
Interns have a terrific opportunity to learn more about the legislative process.
