Investing in future leaders

This spring I have been delighted to greet so many young Nebraskans from the Third District visiting Washington on school and family trips. It is always inspiring to see their patriotic curiosity in government service and hear the hopefulness in their questions. I have also appreciated the opportunity to visit several schools and learning centers during my travels in the Third District. Nebraska has a strong tradition of investment in younger generations, and I am always grateful to meet the dedicated sponsors and educators who invest in these students every day. The importance of building up our nation’s future leaders cannot be overstated, and there are several ways I seek to accomplish this through my office.

One of the best opportunities for young people to learn more about the legislative process and what it is like to work in a congressional office is through internships. My office is accepting applications now for summer internships with each of my office locations.

Interns get firsthand experience serving Nebraskans by assisting me and my staff with constituent services and outreach, communications, and legislative research, and internships in my office can provide college credit, if applicable. Interested college students should visit adriansmith.house. gov/services/internships where they can find more information and download an application.
