Internships

Congressman George Whitesides offers paid internships in his Washington, D.C., and California offices.

Our goal is to provide each intern with a meaningful experience that will enhance understanding of the legislative process and the role of Congress. Intern responsibilities may include:

Answering phones
Researching legislation
Administrative work as assigned
Giving U.S. Capitol tours
Attending briefings and hearings
Assisting staff with public events
Assisting with constituent casework
Additionally, interns will have the opportunity to specialize in legislative assignments that align with their interests.

Internships are offered in both D.C. and California during the fall, spring, and summer semesters. District-based internships are open to high school and college students, and internships in D.C. are available to college students and recent graduates.

Internship applications are accepted on a rolling basis.

Constituents who are hard of hearing or use a video phone have the option to choose TDD or VP based on the type of device they are using. This allows our office to respond to them accordingly. The default option 'Voice' is a standard audible telephone.
