Our Government Affairs team is a small but dedicated group of policy wonks, grassroots advocates, and political junkies – and are all former Hill and campaign staffers. We work hard and set high expectations for ourselves, but also have fun and embrace a team approach in all we do.

    Please send a resume and cover letter – detailing why you want to work for AALU, how you will fit into the team, and how your skills/experience fit the position – to Eric Lundberg (lundberg@aalu.org).
