Internship

Internships in the Office of Congressman Tim Kennedy are available for the fall, spring, and summer sessions for college students and recent graduates. Students will gain invaluable experience working for a member of Congress alongside congressional staff. Hours can be flexible to accommodate academic schedules.

In Washington, D.C. and the Buffalo District Office, intern responsibilities vary, but typically include answering phones, administrative duties, legislative research, attending hearings, meetings, and briefings, drafting correspondence, letters, and Congressional Extensions of Remarks, and assisting with media monitoring. In addition, interns may be assigned to assist in various constituent casework or assist with district-based projects. As a result, interns learn about the legislative process and the many other functions of a congressional office.
