As a Communications Intern at the Democratic Attorneys General Association (DAGA) in Washington, D.C., I gain invaluable experience supporting Democratic State Attorneys General in their efforts to protect citizens' rights and promote progressive policies.My responsibilities directly supplement the crucial work of Democratic AGs, as well as law and policy workers. I monitor media coverage, compile daily press clips, and draft content like press releases and statements. This experience strengthens my research, writing, and strategic communications abilities. Beyond enhancing my professional skillset, this internship allows me to actively participate in shaping policy narratives and advocacy strategies. I contribute to messaging discussions and content brainstorming sessions, developing a deeper understanding of the political process through participation in briefings and meetings. This immersive D.C. experience at the intersection of law, policy, and communications perfectly positions me for a future legal career championing civil rights and justice.
