Internships

The Michigan Senate has designated funds to be used for the purpose of cultivating a legislative intern workforce that mirrors the diverse array of individuals that the Senate works with and serves. The Senate Business Office has established a program modeled after successful initiatives within other state and national agencies, aimed at fostering diversity and equity within our intern community and the Senate as a whole.
