Applications for 2025 Statehouse Internships Now Open

STATEHOUSE (Aug. 29, 2024) – Applications to intern with Indiana House Republicans for the 2025 legislative session are now open, according to State Representatives Kendell Culp (R-Rensselaer) and Jack Jordan (R-Bremen).

Culp stated that the Indiana House of Representatives offers a spring semester internship at the Statehouse in Indianapolis during the legislative session, which will start in January and conclude in April. House interns earn $900 biweekly and work full time, Monday through Friday.

"There is nothing like the experience and skills students gain interning with Indiana House Republicans," Culp said. "From assisting lawmakers and diving into policy research to communicating session updates, there is something for everyone."

Jordan noted that internships are open to college students and recent graduates of all majors. Interns receive free parking, career and professional development assistance, enrollment access to an Indiana government class, and opportunities to earn academic credits through their college or university.

"Interning at the Statehouse immerses you in our state legislature and allows you to see how laws affect Hoosiers," Jordan said. "This program is a tremendous opportunity to build valuable skills and a professional network, which can help launch your future career."

Interns are also eligible to apply for a competitive $3,000 scholarship to use toward undergraduate and graduate expenses.

The program provides opportunities for students to work in various departments related to their studies, including legislative operations, policy, and communications.

Applications are available online at indianahouserepublicans.com/internship and are due by Oct. 31.
