I liked the fast paced nature of the work environment and being at the forefront of Washington politics.
What I wish was different
There was a lot of slow time where we wouldn't really have any tasks to do.
Advice
I would say apply to any Rep. who inspires you or their platform aligns with your values. Don't feel boxed in to just intern for your own Congressperson
