• Internships. I invite all college students to apply for a Congressional internship in my Washington and South Florida offices for spring, summer or fall terms. The term of the internship is flexible. However, it must be at least three months in length, and you must commit to no less than 20 hours per week.

• Government Sites for Kids. Many federal agencies, including the U.S. Congress, offer students, parents, and teachers unique and fun-filled websites designed to educate and stimulate. For a list of links to these websites, click here.

• House Page Program. I encourage all high school juniors to consider and pursue becoming a page in the House of Representatives. Pages will have an unforgettable experience that will allow them to live, work, and study in Washington D.C.
