Over the coming weeks, these interns will engage with congressional leaders, strengthen their leadership skills, and gain a behind-the-scenes look at public service on Capitol Hill.

Members of the 119th Stennis Congressional Staff Fellows Cohort recently volunteered at the Korean War Veterans Memorial in Washington, D.C., helping preserve this important tribute to those who served during the Korean War.

The project provided an opportunity for Fellows to put the values of service and leadership into practice while honoring the sacrifices of others.

What does a career in public service look like? Last Thursday, Truman Scholars got a firsthand look.

We were proud to partner with the Truman Foundation for Truman Scholars Day on Capitol Hill, bringing students together with congressional staff and public servants to discuss careers in Congress, leadership, and service to others.

Scholars also learned about the Public Service Review and how they can contribute their own voices and perspectives to the ongoing conversation around public service.

Thank you to everyone who helped make this year's program a success!

Stennis interns from the Spring 2026 and Summer 2025 programs had a unique opportunity to connect with the commanding officers and distinguished Stennis Leadership Award recipients from the USS John C. Stennis (CVN-74) and USS Theodore Roosevelt (CVN-71) during a luncheon and discussion in Washington, D.C. The conversation offered firsthand insight into leadership at sea, military service, and the vital relationship between Congress and the armed forces.

Former Stennis Congressional Interns Alex William Chen, Managing Editor of the Public Service Review, and Daniel Alvarez of the Spring 2026 cohort joined Navy leaders for the discussion, gaining valuable perspectives on leadership and careers in both military and civilian public service.

During their visit, the commands also met with Representative Trent Kelly (R-MS) and senior Navy leadership to discuss service, leadership, and the importance of strong partnerships between Congress and the military.

A special thank you to the leadership and sailors of the USS John C. Stennis and USS Theodore Roosevelt for sharing their experiences, and congratulations once again to the Leadership Award recipients for their exceptional service.

The Spring 2026 edition of the Public Service Review is now live.

As the first issue of the year, this edition explores the motivations, experiences, and personal connections that shape careers in public service. Through interviews, reflections, and essays, contributors examine what inspires individuals to serve, how they navigate challenges within public institutions, and how relationships, mentorship, and civic responsibility continue to influence democratic leadership.

This edition highlights a wide range of perspectives on public service, including diplomacy, constituent engagement, state-level accountability, education policy, congressional service, and the evolving role of communication in governance. Contributors also reflect on the importance of collaboration, bipartisan dialogue, and the personal experiences that often define meaningful public leadership.

Across every piece is a shared theme: public service is strengthened through curiosity, empathy, and a continued commitment to serving others. Whether through policymaking, community engagement, or institutional leadership, these stories demonstrate how public servants at every level contribute to the strength of democratic institutions.

Thank you to our Spring 2026 contributors: Riley Goff, George Mason University; Kylee Henneberry, Drake University; Hannah Jackson, Howard University; Quinn Luong (front cover), Yale University; Hugh Macaulay, Hillsdale College; Holden Mattison, Mississippi State University; and Cole Sussman, Kenyon College. Thank you for sharing your insight, experiences, and thoughtful perspectives through this edition of the Public Service Review.

The 119th Stennis Fellows recently gathered at Princeton University for the annual Princeton Retreat, bringing together bipartisan and bicameral congressional staff for thoughtful discussion and engagement on some of today’s most pressing issues.

Throughout the retreat, Fellows participated in roundtable discussions on partisanship and social media, met with Princeton University students from the School of Public and International Affairs, and explored the Princeton campus and community together.

The retreat provided an opportunity for meaningful dialogue, relationship-building, and reflection on public service across party lines and chambers of Congress.

Congratulations to the Spring 2026 cohort of the Stennis Congressional Internship Program on completing the program.

They brought a high level of engagement to each session, asking thoughtful questions, sharing perspectives, and learning from one another while building meaningful connections.

Over the past several weeks, these interns stepped away from their day to day responsibilities on Capitol Hill to gain a broader understanding of how Congress operates. Through conversations with current and former staff, they explored legislative work, career paths, and the impact of public service in Washington.

We concluded with a certificate ceremony to recognize their hard work and commitment.

Thank you to our speakers, mentors, alumni, and staff who made this experience possible, and to our Spring 2026 interns for the energy and insight you brought throughout. We look forward to seeing what you do next.
