Our office offers part- and full-time internships for students who are in college or a similar post-high school training program, or who have just graduated. We are dedicated to fostering the continued success of our interns beyond their time with our office. Former interns of ours have gone on to work in other offices across Capitol Hill, on state-wide political campaigns, and in various profit and non-profit organizations.
Internships generally run in the Spring (Jan-May), Summer (May-Aug), and Fall (Sep-Dec). We offer needs-based stipends to students who are Pell Grant eligible. Our internship program has returned to in-person work, and we are seeking press interns for our Reading, West Chester, and Washington, D.C. offices. Our internship program has returned to in-person work with flexible telework options.
We are now accepting applications for Fall 2025 Interns. The deadline for submitting an application is July 13, 2025.
Ideal intern applicants are adaptable and proactive self-starters who have experience in a fast-paced, deadline-oriented work environment. Applicants must be independent problem-solvers, have strong writing skills, and be comfortable communicating to both internal and external audiences. Technical experience with graphic design tools (Canva, InDesign, Illustrator), photo editing programs (Photoshop, Lightroom), or video editing software (Premiere, Headliner) a major plus.
Press interns will be responsible for compiling and distributing press clips, helping draft copy for press and digital materials, and developing digital content. Press interns will have the opportunity to staff the congresswoman to capture videos and photos of events. We offer interns the opportunity to see Congress up close and from the inside. Spanish language skills are preferred, but not required. Prior volunteer, leadership, and work experience are a plus. Ties to PA-06 are also a plus.
To apply, please send: 1) a resume, 2) ONE brief paragraph about yourself and why you’re interested in interning in our office, 3) a writing sample, and 4) one example of digital work (video, graphic or photo) to PA06Press.Internships@mail.house.gov.
