I had the opportunity to undertake an internship in the Texas State Capitol where I worked for a State Senator from San Antonio.
My responsibilities included policy research in relation to potential legislation, writing speeches for the Senator, explaining legislation for constituents, writing press releases, and lobbying other state officials on behalf of constituents.
I also had the opportunity to suggest and draft an equal pay bill to be put before the Senate, which was pretty amazing!
