Being involved in the daily interactions of a congressional office is an excellent opportunity for individuals to learn and grow both academically and professionally.
Interns will learn how to help constituents in Pennsylvania’s 8th District, which covers Bucks and parts of Montgomery counties.
“Congressman Fitzpatrick and his staff work hard to respond to the needs of the citizens within our district and any individual who interns will be called upon to do the same,” a press release said.

Duties of interns may include: answer phone calls, handling constituent communications, preparing briefing sheets and staffing events.
Interested parties must complete the internship application provided by Fitzpatrick’s office, which is available at Fitzpatrick.house.gov. Along with this application, interns must also send a resume and cover letter, as well as two letters of recommendation.
