Each spring, summer and fall, Common Cause offers internships to students from across the country.

We invite you to apply to our program—for an opportunity to explore and enrich your future career prospects while fighting for democracy. Interns work closely with staff on grassroots organizing efforts, research and writing of policy papers and investigative studies, outreach to members of Congress and their staffs, creating content for social media, blogs and newsletters, and fundraising.

Through training and daily work experience, interns gain a deep understanding of the workings of Congress, the Executive Branch and grassroots lobbying. Weekly briefings with key Common Cause staff keep interns up-to-date on our highest priority campaigns and the strategies we are pursuing.

Join us in building a better democracy that works for all of us.

We are not currently recruiting for the internship program. However, please still submit an application and join our talent community for future opportunities.
