Job description

The Office of Representative Chrissy Houlahan (D-PA-06) is accepting applications for Spring 2027 legislative interns in our West Chester, Reading, and Washington, D.C. offices. This internship will run from mid-January through mid-May.

Both full and part time internships are available, and we offer stipends to applicants, with accommodations for Pell-eligible applicants. Our internship program has returned to in-person work with flexible telework options should interns need to work from home.

Ideal applicants are self-starters who bring a customer service mindset and a passion for community service. Applicants must be intellectually curious, willing to spend a lot of time on the phone and write well.

Responsibilities range from helping constituents, to doing research and drafting memos for our legislative staff, to staffing the Congresswoman in hearings or meetings. We offer interns the opportunity to see Congress up close and from the inside. Prior volunteer, leadership, and work experience are a plus. Ties to PA-06 are also a plus.

Due to a high volume of applicants, you will likely only be contacted if you are selected for an interview. This office is an equal opportunity employer and does not discriminate based on race, religion, disability, age, ethnicity, national origin, sex, gender, LGBTQ identification, family status, or military status. Women, people of color, and other members of traditionally underrepresented communities are strongly encouraged to apply.
