Abstract

This paper is a reflection of my internship experience in Congressman Paul Tonko’s district office in Albany NY, highlighting the skills developed while working in a congressional office. Throughout the internship, I engaged in a many different responsibilities, including constituent services, policy research, and community outreach. These experiences allowed me to gain firsthand exposure to the role of a legislative work while addressing local needs and connecting citizens to federal resources. Through this work I developed a deeper understanding of the legislative process, constituent relations, and the impact of federal policy at the community level.
