Legal Progress Internship

Legal Progress, a project of the Center for American Progress, focuses on issues related to the federal judiciary, including the urgent need to confirm progressive judges, exposing the detrimental impact corporate courts have on people’s lives and their ability to achieve justice, and engaging the broader progressive movement to be more invested in judicial rulings and the Constitution.

Legal Progress interns will serve as fully engaged members of a small dedicated team at the Center for American Progress. The interns will engage in research, writing, preparatory work for events, and will have an opportunity to work with policymakers, legal experts, and allied organizations to help promote a progressive judiciary.

Qualifications and requirements:

  • Current law student preferred.
  • Demonstrated knowledge of the federal judiciary.
  • Knowledge of legislative and administrative process on nominations.
  • Strong research, analytical, and writing skills.
  • Comfort with working under pressure and tight deadlines in a fast-paced environment.
