LEGISLATIVE SESSION 2026 FELLOWSHIP
The ACLU of Georgia is seeking Legislative Fellows for the 2026 legislative session to help advance civil liberties and rights across the state. This is a full-time, in-person position (40 hours per week) with flexibility for limited remote work. Fellows will receive compensation ranging from $15 to $20 per hour, depending on experience and education, or may choose to receive academic credit instead.
We’re looking for people who live and breathe policy — individuals who are curious about how laws are made, how they impact communities, and how strategy turns into change. Fellows should be detail-oriented thinkers who can translate complex issues into clear, actionable insights.
The fellowship is open to career professionals with experience in policy, advocacy, or governmental affairs; and exceptional undergraduate upperclassmen, graduate students, law students, with relevant experience or coursework in political science, public policy, or law.
The application deadline is November 14, 2025.
