Legislative Fellows and Interns

Legislative fellows and interns in his legislative office have included Harrisburg-based McNees, Wallace, and Nurick attorney and Harrisburg ACLU President Devin Chawystyk, Alzheimer's Association Public Policy Coordinator Leah Kithcart, lobbyist Catharine M. Connor, now of Gmerek Government Relations, Inc., Erika Jeannette, now an associate at Triad Strategies in Harrisburg, Sherika Thomas, Business Industry Political Action Committee staff member Daniel Goldstein, Emily Vargo,

Cohen told Hillel J. Hoffman, assistant director of news communications at University Communications at Temple University, that "It's good to see students from Temple in the capitol, because students from Central Pennsylvania have dominated the placement of interns in Harrisburg. ( Temple's) Pennsylvania Capital Semester is a great program for students because internships can lead to jobs. Sometimes interns can even influence policy. I'm delighted that Temple is participating, and I hope that other colleges and universities in the Philadelphia region will follow its lead."

Famous quotes containing the words legislative and/or fellows:

    The legislative powers of government reach actions only, and not opinions, ... thus building a wall of separation between Church and State.
    Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)

    The daily lesson of slum life, visualised, reiterated, of low standards, vile living, obscenity, profanity, impurity, is bound to be dwarfing and debasing to the children who are in the midst of it.
    —Albion Fellows Bacon (1865–1933)
