Earthjustice’s Policy & Legislation team is seeking applications from undergraduate students in their junior or senior year for one part-time policy and legislation internship during spring 2025. This is a paid position. Students seeking a remote position may apply, but priority will be given to those open to working a hybrid schedule in Washington, D.C.

We wield the power of law and the strength of partnership to protect people’s health; to preserve magnificent places and wildlife; to advance clean energy, and combat climate change. We partner with thousands of groups, supporters, individuals, and communities to engage the critical environmental issues of our time and bring about positive change.

The Policy and Legislation (PAL) intern will work with the PAL department, which is comprised of environmental lobbyists and advocates, to protect our courtroom victories from efforts to undo them in Congress and defend and strengthen the same environmental laws Earthjustice enforces in the courtroom. The intern will learn how a non-profit environmental organization weighs in on environmental policy at the federal level and gain considerable insight into congressional procedures, the policy process, environmental nonprofit lobbying and advocacy strategizing, coalition building, and associated communications and outreach. Responsibilities: Under the supervision of the Legislative Assistant:
