PHOTO: Middletown Student Interns with Congressman Langevin

A local student has just completed an internship that gave her a first-hand look at the federal government in action.

In the attached photo, Congressman Jim Langevin meets with Middletown resident Rebecca Costello, who participated in Langevin’s Rhode Island District Office internship program over the fall semester.

Costello will graduate from the University of Rhode Island, where she is majoring in political science and gender and women studies, in December 2015. In the District Office, interns experience a variety of tasks, including answering phone calls, drafting constituent correspondence and supporting staff members on various projects.
