Legislative staff say interns helped cover essential tasks during summer

A staff member thanked interns for stepping in during a time of limited staff resources, saying the interns "were able to help us a lot" and that their work moved the physical and financial side of the legislature forward. Supervisors told participants the effort had tangible value and wished them luck in school and future civic involvement.

Vice Speaker Tony Atta and other supervisors urged interns to return next year if the summer program is offered again and emphasized that even small contributions in legislature operations make a difference. The remarks framed the internship as both a training opportunity and a practical support for legislative operations.
