Policy Counsel Fellowship
Descripción
Descripción
Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington (CREW) is looking to host a post-graduate fellow to join our policy team, funded (in whole or in-part) by their law school or a third party organization. The policy counsel fellowship position offers recent law school graduates an opportunity to work with CREW on developing our long-term policy agenda to change laws, rules, and enforcement to uphold the rule of law, protect our democratic institutions, and ensure accountability for abuses of power. Responsibilities include monitoring legislative developments, analyzing and providing technical advice on legislative proposals, drafting congressional letters and statements for the record, and preparing reports and other written products. If a fellow is interested in or is required to develop a specific project proposal as part of their funding, we welcome having those discussions. Interested applicants must be recent law school graduates or in their final year in law school, work well with others, and possess strong writing and analytical skills. The position is based in Washington, D.C. but will be hybrid with fellows splitting their time between working at home and working in the office.
