Intern Blog: 2009 Summer

Each week the interns in my Washington, DC, office share some of their thoughts, experiences and impressions about their internship. On this page, you will find entries from the interns who worked in my office during summer semester 2009.  To read entries from other semesters, please visit the Intern Blog Archives.

My summer break from school has come and gone while being here in Washington DC.  I will be flying back to Idaho tomorrow afternoon.  It seems twelve weeks went by rather quickly.  It has been a good summer, and I am very glad I had the chance to come out here and see and do and work in all of the things I was able to take part in.  Having said that, I am looking forward to going back home and returning to University of Idaho for my senior year.

For any prospective interns who may be reading this, you should know that this is an excellent office to work in.  From my conversations with interns in other offices whom I met this summer, this is truly one of the better internships on the Hill.  A lot of other offices only have four or six week programs and constantly have a turnover of interns every few weeks all summer.  In contrast, you have the opportunity to spend the entire summer or semester in Senator Crapo’s office and really assimilate with the permanent staff and feel like you are actually creating value for the office.  If you are looking for a valuable work and learning experience in Washington, I strongly encourage you to apply for Senator Crapo’s office.

My time in Washington has come to a close.  The past ten weeks have offered me unbelievable opportunities and experiences, which I doubt I will ever replace.  From being a part of the legislative process, to riding in elevators with Senators and Congressmen on a daily basis, Washington is truly a unique place to live and work.  This experience has given me unbelievable insight to the ways of congress, and I can’t express how much I’ve learned in my time here.  To anyone contemplating an internship on the Hill, I would highly recommend it; especially with a staff as outstanding as can be found in this office.  While I am excited to get back to Idaho, this experience has left a large imprint on me, and I’m sure I will cross paths with Washington again.

After spending a few months here in DC, it’s just about time for me to go back to Idaho.  I had a friend from school come into town this past weekend and got to be tour guide for a few days.  We managed to see and do quite a bit—including a few sites I had not made it to yet such as the Jefferson Memorial and the National Gallery of Art.  I would recommend the east building of the art gallery over the west.  There are some much more unusual and interesting pieces and exhibits in the east building while the west building is filled with a bunch of portraits and paintings that are hundreds of years old. 

If you find yourself in DC and the forecast calls for rain, you should probably bring your umbrella.  I have been caught in the rain several times over the past couple of weeks without it and paid the price.  I was walking to the Metro station after work on Thursday last week and I wasn’t out the door 5 minutes until I was completely soaked.  It rained so hard that I was dripping on fellow passengers on the train ride home.

I am so grateful for the opportunity I have been given to serve in the United States Senate with Senator Crapo and his staff.  The personal aspect of working among the congressmen has been impressive.  I have enjoyed the personable aspect of working here as I have shared elevators with various senators and met them in the halls.           

A couple weeks ago I was able to attend a summer intern lecture at which the CEO of C-SPAN spoke to us.  He took the time to create a meaningful discussion with us and was genuinely interested in our views.  He told us that he was intrigued by what he was able to see firsthand while he worked in the senate and C-SPAN was created to make that firsthand experience somewhat available to all United States citizens.  While, I believe working here has opened a whole new vista of understanding for me about how the United States Congress works, it really is amazing that everyone can educate themselves through C-SPAN and the internet.

I will come away from this experience with a greater appreciation and reverence for the fact that our government, made up of so many different voices, opinions, passion and interests not only works but has helped create one of the strongest nations on earth.  The senators debate the issues with their ideas and different backgrounds and they come up with a solution one bill and amendment at a time.  The Seal of the United States reads: E Pluribus Unum meaning "out of many one".  I better understand what that means after having had this opportunity. 

           

For anyone looking into interning here in Senator Crapo's office this is a great place to get meaningful experience.  Senator Crapo has a welcoming staff that allows you to gain as much experience as you can while also giving you meaningful work responsibilities.

Another week has come and gone in Washington.  I had the chance to go to a Banking Housing and Urban Affairs committee hearing this week and listen to Chairman Bernanke of the Federal Reserve give his semi-annual monetary report.  It was very interesting to hear from the man who oversees the supply of money in the United States give his update on the current state of the economy.  However, much of the subject matter was a little complicated and difficult for me to follow along.  While the committee seemed to agree that his dynamic policies prevented a total economic meltdown last year, the Senators still asked him some tough questions as to credit availability for small businesses and rising unemployment.  It will be interesting to see if he is reappointed by the President when his term is up as chairman.

I also sat in on a video conference between members of our DC staff and members of the Idaho staff this week.  I had previously learned of organizations using such technology to solve communication problems associated with long distances in some of my business and management classes at school.  I had never seen it used in person before and can now see the benefits of having that face to face contact with your co-workers.  People can be thousands of miles apart and still come together to better understand and work out problems with each other.

It has been another interesting week on the Hill.  It seemed like the media had forgotten about Supreme Court nominee Judge Sotomayor since she had first been announced by the president earlier this summer.  That has all since changed as the nomination hearings began and concluded this week in the Senate Judiciary committee.  As a result, there has been much attention focused on our Senate side of the neighborhood.  In addition to the media attention, there have been several demonstrators protesting her confirmation just outside the entrance to our office in the Dirksen building.  While I won’t get into the specifics of the content this group was distributing, it was a little distracting and unsettling to listen to while waiting in line to go through security.  I did however have the chance to sit in for  part of the hearing on Thursday.  It was awesome to see and listen to in person the members of the committee ask the nominee some tough questions and hear how she handled them.

Also on Thursday I had the task of taking the Executive Assistant over to the Capitol to drop off some paper work.  I was supposed to be the guide and get her to the correct room on time, but it turns out I do not know the building as well as I thought I did and we had to ask for directions.  It was an adventure and we ended up running through the hallways in the basement to drop off the paper work and get back to the office on time for the Senator’s afternoon meetings.  Despite our run through the Capitol, we were still a few minutes late.  It just goes to show you never know what to expect as an intern and each day usually offers something new and unusual.

This week I was able to sit in on Senator Crapo’s teleconference with Idaho reporters.  I am almost sure they covered all the current issues and more with the Senator in the small amount of time allotted to them.  While Senator Crapo is always well-informed as to his opinions and positions on issues, the press staff made sure he was prepared for any question. 

Something I did not realized before I came here was the extent and importance the staff is to a Senator’s ability to function.  The Senators trust their staff to stay informed and connected to the issues they are directly involved in and especially those issues they are not directly involved in.  His scheduling, his meetings, and even some of his extracurricular activities are planned out to make the best use of his time.  It is quite amazing to me the team work that goes in to making sure the Senator is able to do all that he does, well scheduled and well-informed. 

I believe something to be commended of Senator Crapo is his ability and keen interest in staying connected most closely with the issues that directly affect Idahoans.  Each Senator has a variety of issues they could focus on with passion, but it may do not mean much to the people they represent.  Senator Crapo makes sure his passions are served in the interest of the people of Idaho, and he cares what they think.  He constantly encourages Idahoans to make their voices heard to those in the state and in other states.    

     

This week’s main event has been the Sotomayor nomination to the United States Supreme Court hearings in the Senate.  Jared and I sat in on one yesterday evening.  I have seen hearings filled with reporters and cameras, but it was quite a sight to see the hundreds of reporters stuffed into that room.  They were all over the tables on the floor and the walls opened up to make balcony-like spaces for more cameras and media along the sides of the room.  Senator Al Franken was on the Senate bench, waiting his turn to question Sotomayor.  He seems to be working his way into the life of a Senator full speed ahead.  But then again if someone chooses to become a Senator they should probably understand that everything about a Senator’s life is full speed again.

It’s official.  You cannot get PB&J on Capitol Hill.  We called a few places today asking if they could make us a sandwich and they actually laughed at us.  I see nothing funny about peanut butter and jelly—it is actually still considered a delicacy in most European countries.  Get with the program, D.C.  Potato bread, crunchy peanut butter and grape jelly should be readily available on the Hill.  We’ve got shoe shines, barbers, one hundred coffee shops, countless restaurants and cafeterias, candy shops, three different places to get gelato, gift shops, you name it.  PB&J—just not happening.  It’s very upsetting.  This is what happens when Jared doesn’t get PB&J:

Jared when he doesn't get PB&J sandwiches.

 

A retired Director of Idaho Department of Health and Welfare, met with the Senator today and as we were all trying to make connections with each other in the front office (it’s not usually hard), I found out that he is actually one of my neighbors from Boise.  In fact, I was able to identify which house I lived in by telling him what kinds of dogs we had.  We might be in D.C., but it’s still a small Idaho world when people visit from the Gem State.    

Hearings for the nomination of Sonya Sotomayor have kept the Senate Offices buildings packed with strangers this week.  Tickets are distributed across the street, and then anyone can come sit in on the hearings once they have one (including protestors in disguise).  Senator Leahy has had to kick several people out already for inappropriate outbursts—it’s a circus.

Well, I only have about a month left on the internship.  Time flies when you are having fun.  So many cool things happen that it is impossible to chronicle them all.  The Senate is now complete now; Minnesota has resolved its election and Al Franken is now a Senator.  The big issues still are health care and cap and trade.  Health care is such an important issue because everyone has a stake in the system if there are reforms.  So on that issue, there are as many opinions as there are people in the system, which makes the issue all the more complex.  However, the cap and trade issue is interesting.  Democrats are pushing hard for it, yet I don't think I have found a single person in favor of the cap and trade bill.  Not a single call in favor of it.  I don't think Idahoans or Americans generally see this as a high priority. 

Last weekend I went to Gettysburg with my BYU group.  We recreated Pickett's Charge, and I was the color guard and carried our standard into battle.  Turns out someone in the group filmed all this, slowed the film down and I look and sound like King Kong running down a hill.  We also made stop in a quaint West Virginian hamlet, Harper's Ferry.  All in all, it was a fun trip.  For this Idahoan, it's nice to get out of the city.

It was a slow week during the July 4th recess and not much was going on around the office.  My fellow interns and I had the chance to go on a guided tour of the Library of Congress Jefferson Building because of the slow week.  It was a great tour and amazing building to see.  We even had time to go to the Main Reading Room and browse the bookshelves.  Although I missed the fireworks and all of the celebration for the Fourth in Washington, I instead went to Nashville, Tennessee, to visit my sister for the long weekend and had a great time.

Things have picked up considerably now that Senate is back in session this week and everybody is back to work.  I have just been busy with my usual responsibilities of sorting faxes, distributing scheduling requests, and making phone calls.  I did have the chance this week to go and visit the Senate Gallery and watch a vote.  It was the first time I had been there all summer and it turned out to be really neat.  Watching the floor proceedings in person is much more entertaining than watching on C-SPAN.

Of all the July 4th celebrations I have attended this year’s celebration was one to remember.  The Washington D.C. atmosphere was a perfect place to celebrate the birth of this great nation and also to celebrate the independent and liberated foundation upon which it still stands.  I went to the Parade and then I went to the Capitol 4th concert outside the Capitol building.  It was kind of unreal to realize that I was not just there as a tourist for the day, as I had been in the past, but that I was actually living there and working in the Capitol building.  The concert drew a larger crowd this year than most according to the park rangers.  It was quite a site to see people all over the Capitol stairs and the lawns, a sea of people in red, white, and blue.  Then the fireworks went off over the Washington Monument in the distance with the symphony orchestra playing Tchaikovsky's "1812 Overture" in the background.  It was a memorable experience to say the least.

After a congressional recess last week and a long three-day weekend, things are back to business here on Capitol Hill this week.  Debates about environmental care and energy bills are keeping the Senator very busy as he moves from one meeting or hearing to the next.  The healthcare bills are also being revised and continue to be debated over.  They want to have a solid proposal through the senate before the August recess.  I am still not a fan of having this be a fast process.  The scope of it is too far reaching for any definite answers to be researched and concluded by August.    

The summer internship months are going fast and I am now in the find a job mode.  I just read an article in The Examiner Washington this morning entitled, “Jobless grads go home again”.  Needless to say I am hopeful that I will find a job in the thriving metropolis of Washington D.C.  Though, I am beginning to get the feeling that the old adage is true, even with a bachelor’s degree, that beggars can’t be choosers.

So it’s been a while since my last blog.

Let’s see where are we…Well the Senate is back in session this week after a recess leading up to the Fourth of July holiday.  This was my first experience with a recess, and the office was nowhere near as slow as I expected it to be.  While the general hustle and bustle of Capitol Hill slowed during recess, we found plenty projects to keep the interns busy.  Casey and I spent several days sorting through the many photos of the Senator with constituents, which we were very glad to finally complete.  My first Fourth of July in Washington was a blast.  I spent time with friends in the city, and even took a trip to Harper’s Ferry where we floated the Shenandoah and Potomac Rivers.  The water here is a lot warmer than in Idaho this time of year, so that was a welcome change to say the least.  Watching the fireworks display over the Washington Monument from a friend’s apartment in Arlington rightfully capped off the weekend’s festivities.  This week it’s back to business as usual, so until next week…

The summer is going by fast as I am realizing that my intern experience is nearly halfway complete.  This Friday will mark the sixth week I have been with Senator Crapo’s office.  It has been a busy six weeks as there is usually plenty to do where I work on the scheduling side of things.  Plenty of people, businesses, organizations, groups, and constituents wish to meet with the Senator.  It takes much coordination and organization to accommodate as many meeting and event requests as his schedule permits. 

A few things I have learned while sorting through requests to meet with Senator Crapo is that there is a union, association, coalition, or cooperative for just about every interest out there.  From the United Watermelon Growers to the National Association of Convenience Stores, there is a group that shares and promotes the interests and concerns of a certain segment of the population.  However, a constant criticism that Americans have of Congress is that it is influenced too much by interest groups.  After working with these groups through my scheduling intern responsibilities, I have come to the conclusion that they are merely ordinary people, united by a certain cause, and are a legitimate part of the democratic process.  While they may be more organized and better situated to affect certain legislation than the ordinary citizen, it is important to remember that groups, unions, and coalitions represent the views of hundreds, thousands, or possibly millions of ordinary citizens.  Rest assured, democracy is alive and well in Congress.

I had hoped to be a better blogger than I have been.  There have been so many interesting things going on.  Fast-forward three weeks or so.  They unveiled a statue of Ronald Reagan in the rotunda.  I happened to be walking on my way to the House side when the ceremony concluded.  I met former Speaker of the House Dennis Hastert and had a chance to speak with him for a few minutes.  And I saw Henry Kissinger from a distance, among many other VIPs too numerous to mention.  I think it is very appropriate to have a statue of Reagan in the rotunda among such luminaries as Eisenhower, Washington and Jefferson.

Two weekends ago, with some friends from BYU I rented a car and we took a day trip to Hershey, PA.   It was so nice to get out of the city and back into Small Town America.  We learned how chocolate is made and ate our fill at a chocolate tasting concourse.  Later that night we drove back to Washington through Amish country.  We decided that we need to spend some more time up there and hopefully we can spend a weekend among the Amish this summer.  Last Friday, the BYU interns spent the entire day at National Defense University at Ft. McNair.  We did a simulation of bilateral talks between the United States and Mexico regarding border issues.  It was really interesting and it is the same training that State, Defense, Homeland Security and military personal go through to prepare for the real thing.

I’m keeping rather busy in the office.  I don’t work up front as much any more.  I spend a good portion of my day filling flag requests.  Senators and Congressman have a neat service available to them where they can request flags be flown for constituents over the Capitol and it is nearly a full-time job keeping up with all of the requests from Idahoans. In addition to that, I help all of the legislative staff with whatever projects they may have for me, big or small.  I’ve become quite the expert in running letters around the Capitol complex, usually getting the signatures of the Idaho delegation for letters sent to Obama administration officials.  The other interns and I have been enjoying some of the receptions after work, which are very nice for the budget of poor college students.

It’s Blog day again.  It’s been a quiet Friday for the most part.  Fridays leave time to catch up on and conclude the various projects accumulated during the week.  My list of intern duties is expanding, and the expansion is definitely for the better.  I’ve been assigned more and more projects by staffers, and in addition to my normal circuit of committee hearings during the week I was able to attend a Mark-Up Hearing regarding the Clean Water Restoration Act, S.909.  Sitting right behind the Senators in Committee, and watching them vote on legislation is remarkable to say the least.  I’ve been bothering our LA on environmental issues enough that he allowed me to sit in on a meeting in our office regarding land usage legislation within Idaho’s White Cloud Mountains.  That’s all for now, I’ll check back next week.

Health care is the hot topic on Capitol Hill this week.  With the President announcing strongly his endorsement of nationalizing health care, many Republican Senators are debating their views that there are other options that need to be discussed first.  I understand the need for a reformed health care plan, but I am fearful that a decision will be made without the adequate amount of time reasonable to help the situation for longer than a few years.  I am nervous about the government's role in so much of American life that was once privately owned and free market accessible.  When I think of nationalized health care in its basic form, I think of hour-long phone calls on hold while flipping through a large book of government regulations and policies. 

There are simply too many Americans for the government to regulate cases that are so individual as health care.  I don't have the answers but there are brilliant men on Capitol Hill debating better options that will take some thought and time, but I believe will lead us in a better direction in the long run, for my children and grandchildren.    

I was able to share an elevator with Senator Specter yesterday, and I told him that I was on my way to Pennsylvania this weekend for a family reunion.  Of course, he knew the town and the county I was going to, as small as it is.  Then I told him that I was born and raised in Idaho, and the conversation kind of ended.  Hmmm…  He had just finished talking to a group of Capitol Hill interns.  He told us to figure out what we want to do, work hard to get there, and we can achieve anything.  He also quoted something his wife told him, I am paraphrasing, "you only regret what you didn't do."

I have been on Capitol Hill for a little over three weeks now.  I would say my favorite part about the internship and the whole experience is the energy here.  Almost everyone is listening to the issues and debating the best way to solve them or improve them.  Sometimes when I am sitting in on a hearing or even walking down the hall I have to remind myself that I am at the center of the United States government; the people around me are making important decisions that affect my life now and in the future. 

The first hearing I attended was on the Afghan/Pakistan Strategies.  The testimony of Admiral Mullen and the discussion was serious and eye-opening.  That was also my first introduction to the pink ladies that are extremely against the war in Iraq and began to voice their opinions in the middle of the meeting without reservation.  Opinions are shared in all kinds of ways here on Capitol Hill, yet there is also a respect and an order that is enforced.   I enjoy being in the background, learning firsthand the day-to-day workings of the United States Congress.     

Outside of work I have visited the Holocaust Museum a few times and I still haven’t seen everything there is to see and learn.  The stories from the Jewish Holocaust and the information about the genocides that continue today have touched me deeply.  Many of the Jews who were liberated by the Americans speak of the United States with great reverence.  They treasure the freedoms we enjoy here and they have reminded me to do the same.

I have been in Washington for almost one month now and have thoroughly enjoyed my time working for Team Crapo.  It has been very rewarding to experience life in our nation’s capital and, needless to say, quite the change of pace from my routine at University of Idaho.  

Recently, I had the opportunity to attend the 2009 Senate-House Dinner.  The dinner was a very large fundraiser hosted by the Republican Senate and House committees.  The Master of Ceremonies was Academy Award winner Jon Voight and speakers at the event included Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, House Minority Leader John Boehner, as well as other Senators and Congressmen.  The keynote address was given by former Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich.  It was an amazing experience as I had never been to an event as grandiose and extravagant such as this.  There were a few thousand people in attendance, the entire area was lit up in red and blue, there were some great live music performances and speakers, and the dinner was excellent.  Attending this event and being in the presence of so many influential people was a great opportunity and one of the many perks of spending the summer in Washington.

I am now in my second week as a "Hill" intern, and feel like I’m shedding the glazed-over look on my face with each passing day.  On a serious note, the first few days were stressful, as it is with any new situation; but I am starting to get the swing of things.  My phone handling skills are sharpening, as I no longer drop calls when concerned constituents are on the line.  Today was actually the first day a staffer entrusted me to a project reaching beyond my front office duties, so things are headed in a positive direction!  It’s extremely fortunate to be placed so close to the Capitol building.  Today I gave myself a personal tour through some of the areas closed to the public.  There is just something about life in Washington D.C. that makes it a fantastic place to live, as the Senator put it "…it's the seat of power for the most powerful nation in the world".   There’s something about walking by a Sotomayor press conference, and then seeing the live press conference on C-SPAN in the office that makes this a fun office to be a part of.

For the long weekend I went to New York City with some friends from BYU.  We rented a car, which was actually relatively cheap when split among 5 people…the most amazing thing was that we all managed to fit in it.  One of the guys in our group has a sister who lives near Princeton, NJ.  Her family was on vacation for the week, so they let us stay in their home.  While the free lodging was very nice, the house turned out to be haunted—I kid you not.  There were screams in the night which freaked us all out, but the source of which still remains a mystery.   Some highlights of the trip were:  a massive pastrami on rye sandwich with fat kosher pickles, pizza and cannolis in Little Italy, a stop at Ellis Island, an amazing organ concert at St. Patrick’s Cathedral, joining in with an impromptu rendition of “Imagine” at the John Lennon memorial in Central Park, and driving through Delaware, which it turns out is slightly smaller than Cassia County.

The President has made his choice for the seat on the Supreme Court vacated by Justice David Souter, and the nomination is Judge Sonia Sotomayor from the 2nd Circuit.  It was a propitious time for President Obama to name her because the Hill is dead and all of the Senators were back in their states for the Memorial Day Recess.  It will be fun to be here during her confirmation hearing, which will take place just a few doors down the hall from our office.  At the Barlow Center we had Congressman Buck McKeon, ranking member on the House Education and Labor Committee, speak to us.  He and Senator Crapo were both members of the 1992 freshman class in the House of Representatives.  I had a chance to speak with him for a few minutes and he said that he can sense the same type of frustration now that fomented into the Republican Revolution of 1994.  I agree with him just based on the calls we are getting in the office.  He also had some really good ideas on how to save a considerable amount of money at the Department of Education as well, which might come in handy given how we have been spending around here recently.

May 18, 2009

Well, I have been here two weeks now and I’ve kept busy because it has been basically just Rachel and me up front.  It has forced me to learn the ropes quickly and I feel like I have mastered the phone system…well, not mastered it, but at least I don’t drop calls anymore or freeze up when a Senator calls.  I love to spend time in the Capitol, especially when there are lawmakers milling about.  Every day my first week here after I got off work I would go up to the Capitol and sit in the gallery for a while.  At home I am a perpetual C-SPAN watcher so it has been fun to see the action live and in person.

There are many important people that come in the office, and it is fun to meet them.  Mayor Bieter from Boise came in and we shocked everyone when we broke into Basque.  He is much more conversant than I am.  We had a group of state legislators from Idaho and it was fun to see them again and always a number of CEOs, lobbyists, and politicians. 

Carole King passed by and I had a rather unique experience with her.  Luke had come in because she was a minute late for her appointment with Senator Crapo and he sat down.  I turned to him with my back to the door and I started to sing “Carole King is too late, baby, now she’s too late…” a spoof of her famous song.  All of a sudden, Luke gets this funny look on his face and I suddenly realize that Carole King is standing directly behind me!  I guess we all were looking at her funny or something, so she said “I feel like my ears are red.”  And we told her what I was doing and then she sang the song for us.  It was pretty cool! 

On May 14, BYU students met with Judge Tom Griffith from the DC Circuit Court of Appeals and it was incredible.  Judge Griffith was very direct and answered all of our questions. The discussion was “off the record” and I was given specific instructions not to blog about the contents of the lecture, but let me just say if we had more judges like him, the country would be in much better shape.
