Description:
Summer internships in Rep. Angie Craig’s office will be held in-person in the Washington,
D.C. office. The D.C. press internship will run approximately from May 26th, 2026, through
Early August, with some room for flexibility. All interns are paid a stipend and provided with
the necessary technology for their work. Schedules are flexible to accommodate course
schedules and academic programs; however, a minimum availability of 20-25 hours per
week is highly preferred.
Responsibilities:
The press intern will have the opportunity to work with staff in both the D.C. and district
offices over the course of the internship and the program is easily tailored to fit interns’
interests and career goals. As a result, the press intern will learn about both the legislative
process and the communications operation of a congressional office and gain hands-on
professional experience while serving the constituents of Minnesota’s Second
Congressional District.
Qualifications:
Successful internship candidates are passionate about public service, confident and
effective communicators, proactive problem-solvers and possess strong writing and digital
skills. They are also comfortable speaking on the phone and working with the general
public. We strongly encourage individuals with ties to Minnesota (especially the Second
Congressional District) and those from traditionally underrepresented backgrounds to
apply.
Instructions:
To apply for the press internship in the DC office, please email a combined PDF of
your resume, two digital samples and a one-page cover letter to
RepCraigPress@mail.house.gov. Please format your email subject line as "Craig
Press Internship: FirstName LastName.”
Please include your weekly availability between the hours of 9:00am and 6:00pm in
your cover letter and confirm that you will be available for in-person work. Applications must be submitted no later than 9am CT/10am ET on Wednesday, April
1st to RepCraigPress@mail.house.gov.
