Internship Program

Campaigns are the backbone to our democracy, and it is of utmost importance to ensure everyone has an equal opportunity to be involved.

The Problem in the Status Quo

Currently, there is a disparity in who is able to work in political campaigns, due to varying factors.

Firstly, youth are typically not even given the opportunity to participate in this important aspect of our democracy. However, when they are, they really show up. One example is the Ed Markey campaign, where the student wing surpassed all expectations, and helped him win re-election.

Additionally, many campaigns do not have the means to compensate their interns, meaning the only students who are able to take part are the financially advantaged.

By connecting equipped interns with campaigns, Rep the Future is guaranteeing prosperity for the future of democracy in New York City.

    To allow for as many qualified interns to partake in the program as possible, Rep the Future will prioritize compensation to students who need it most
