Legislative Interns Still Needed
Open to All Majors- Stipend Available
If you are interested in one of the positions below, please e-mail Christine Routzahn ASAP at The Shriver Center (routzahn@umbc.edu).
Delegate Cardin is seeking 2012 legislative session interns. The intern would address constituent issues by written and verbal correspondence, draft written statements and weekly newsletters on behalf of Delegate Cardin concerning various legislative issues, and summarize and track legislation, particularly concerning matters of election law (Del. Cardin is subcommittee chair), environmental and recreational issues (our office is very involved), and matters of taxation (sure to be the top issue this legislative term; Del. Cardin is a member of the Ways and Means Committee). We maintain a very active, high-energy and fast-paced office, and prefer an intern who fits that mentality. The intern would work independently but also experience great interaction with Delegate Cardin and myself.
Maryland State Delegate Kirill Reznik (District 39 in Montgomery County) is seeking interns to work in his Annapolis office during the Maryland General Assembly's 2012 Legislative Session. Delegate Reznik serves on the Health and Government Operations Committee. While his committee primarily focuses on health care related topics, his office will focus on passing legislation on a variety of issues. This is an excellent opportunity to learn how the Maryland government operates and gain valuable experience working in a legislative body. Along with administrative work, interns will gain hands-on experience while researching legislation that will come before the Health and Government Operations Committee, working on constituent issues, and helping staff to pass legislation sponsored by the Delegate. Interns will also be encouraged to follow legislation of their personal interest as those bills work through the legislative process. Interns should be college students willing to commit at least two full days a week from the middle of January to the middle of April. All applicants are welcome, regardless of Maryland residency.
