Hello,

My name is James Lee and I am the Campaign Manager for Congressman Jeff Fortenberry. I wanted to share an opportunity that I think would be great for Nebraska's homeschool students in the Lincoln area!

We are currently seeking student interns who are looking to develop their political strategy skills and get involved in this year's congressional campaign to support Congressman Jeff Fortenberry in Nebraska's first district.

We are excited to roll out this program and provide students with a chance to learn and grow, even as the coronavirus impacts our usual way of life. I know some students may have had their summer plans fall through or have just started the process of looking, and we want to offer an option for those still wanting to build their resume and skills. Past interns have used their experience to land positions on Capitol Hill and in state government.

If you have any questions please call me at 614-557-9661.  Internship position descriptions are listed below.

Thanks!
James
