Massachusetts state Sen. Jason Lewis is seeking candidates for summer 2026 internships with his office.
Lewis proudly represents the residents of the Fifth Middlesex District of Massachusetts, which includes Malden, Melrose, Reading, Stoneham, Wakefield, and parts of Winchester.
Lewis is a member of Senate President Karen Spilka’s leadership team, and serves as the Senate Chair of the Joint Committee on Education and the Chair of the Senate Ethics Committee.
He also co-founded and co-chairs the Legislature’s Zero Waste Caucus and Middlesex Fells Caucus, and is a leader of the METCO Caucus. He has been a leader in shaping public policy on a range of issues important to his district and the state, including educational excellence, affordable healthcare, and economic opportunity for all.
Interns will have the unique opportunity to engage with policymaking, politics, and government from the inside. Although unpaid, interns will obtain meaningful experience by witnessing and participating in the day-to-day functioning of a state Senate office with a special focus on our work with education.
Internship tasks may include:
• attending legislative or project briefings
• researching information and statistics
• summarizing bills and reports
• creating pamphlets and charts
• drafting social media posts
• event planning
Interns must have strong written and verbal communication skills and attention to detail. Candidates should be comfortable with Microsoft Office, Google applications, and major social media platforms.
Applicants must have a high school diploma or equivalent by summer 2026, and preference may be given to applicants from the Fifth Middlesex District.
Hours and duration of internships are flexible, though ideal applicants will be available about 10 hours per week between late May and early August. This position can be in-person, hybrid, or fully remote.
The office does not discriminate in employment on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, pregnancy, gender identity, national origin, political affiliation, sexual orientation, marital status, disability, genetic information, or age. Applicants of color are strongly encouraged to apply.
