Inhofe interns prepare for lunch in the Senate dining room.

Internships

Interning is a wonderful opportunity to experience first-hand the legislative branch of the federal government, while serving Oklahoma. By attending committee hearings and guest lectures and assisting with research and general office duties, interns gain a “behind the scenes” perspective of the legislative process. College credit can often be earned, and it is advisable to check with your school to determine what specific requirements must be met.
NOTE: Due to recent problems with the mail system, please fax all DC intern application materials to (202)228-0380, Attention Suzanne Meledeo, Intern Coordinator.
