About the Texas Democratic Party
Founded in 1846, Texas Democrats continue the march towards a state as great as its promise.
A fair shot for all, that’s what drove Democrats to build this great state, and that is what drives us today. A belief that no matter who you are, what you look like, where you come from, or who you love if you work hard in Texas, you can make it.
We believe democratic government exists to achieve as a community, state, and nation what we cannot achieve as individuals.
We believe in equal opportunity, fairness, freedom, family, community, and a responsibility to ourselves and each other. These are the values our elders passed down to us, the values we hope to share with our children, and the values we expect from our elected officials.
The Texas Democratic Party is a movement of millions of Texans coming together to fight for our Texas values. We know our state cannot succeed when the deck is stacked against working Texans and their families.
Internship Overview
Time Commitment: Internships are part-time, requiring a minimum commitment of hours per week. We generally prefer that part-time interns commit to work full workdays (i.e., three eight-hour days rather than four six-hour days). but schedules can be flexible. Internships are offered on an in-person basis only. This generally requires students to have access to a computer and reliable internet. Texas Democratic Party Leaders are officed in Dallas and Austin and depending on the internship, interns would be expected to work out of one of those offices to receive the highest quality experience.
Duration: All internships are for 10 weeks, 24 hours per week.
