The Luna Scholars and Fellows Program is a paid, full-time legislative internship at the Texas Capitol in Austin. Scholars and Fellows are placed in the office of a State Senator where they learn firsthand how the Texas Senate operates while supporting the day-to-day work of the office through policy research, bill tracking, floor preparation, constituent relations, and legislative communications.
