State Senator Matt Huffman
Huffman Announces
2019 Legislative Fellowship Program
COLUMBUS - State Senator Matt Huffman (R-Lima) today announced that the
Ohio Legislative Service Commission is accepting applications through
April 1, 2018 for the 2019 Legislative and Telecommunications
Fellowship Program. The Commission will hire 24 fellows to serve in the
Ohio General Assembly for the 2018 calendar year.
“The fellows that have worked in my office have been an invaluable
resource for my staff and me," said Senator Huffman. "They regularly
help us with constituent communication, legislative research, and a
broad array of priorities that often change from day to day.”
LSC fellows are immersed in the Ohio legislative process by assisting
members of the Ohio General Assembly with constituent work, writing
press releases and speeches, assisting in policy research, attending
meetings and performing administrative duties. Telecommunications
fellows assist in televising House and Senate proceedings and in
preparing educational video productions about the General Assembly and
the legislative process.
Fellows receive full state of Ohio employee benefits and are paid
$31,200 per year, with the opportunity to earn a $2,000 bonus based on
length of service in the program.
Legislative fellowship application materials must be postmarked by
April 1, 2018 to be considered for the program. The application
deadline for the telecommunications applicants is April 30, 2018.
All applicants must have graduated from a four-year college degree
program by the December start date. Persons holding graduate or
professional degrees may apply. The legislative fellowship program is
open to graduates of all major fields of study who have a genuine
interest in learning about state government, and no political
experience is required. The two telecommunications fellows must have
majored or minored in a telecommunications-related field of study or
have comparable experience.
