John Moolenaar's congressional office has opened applications for internship positions in Caledonia, Clare, and Washington, D.C. Internships begin in January 2027, and applications are due by the close of business on Friday, November 13, 2026.
Why it matters
The program gives college students and recent graduates, including Michigan residents who are highly encouraged to apply, hands-on experience with constituent services and federal legislation. Interns in Caledonia and Clare assist residents with federal agency issues, while Washington interns support legislative and communications work.
The office is recruiting across three locations, with applications due November 13, 2026 for positions starting January 2027. The announcement does not state how many internship slots are available at each office.

Roadmap
Congressional internship programs run by individual House member offices give students a path into federal government work outside of Capitol Hill's larger fellowship programs. This opening follows that model by pairing district constituent service in Michigan with a Washington, D.C. placement.
Students interested in the program need to prepare a cover letter, resume, and statement of legislative interests before the November 13 deadline. Applicants should note the online submission requirement at Moolenaar.House.gov/internships.
The takeaway
Students with interest in federal policy can gain constituent service and legislative experience through this program. The deadline is November 13, 2026, so applicants should prepare materials early.
