Grayslake student interns for U.S. Sen. Dick Durbin

Scott Sloan, of Grayslake, will spend part of the fall interning for U.S. Senator Dick Durbin (D-IL), working behind the scenes in the Senator’s Capitol Hill office.

Sloan, son of Patty and Hal Sloan, is studying at Georgetown Law and will graduate with a joint degree. As one of two legal interns for Durbin, Sloan works with the staff of the Judiciary Committee Subcommittee on Constitution, Civil and Human Rights, which Durbin chairs.

"While working with the Senator Durbin’s Judiciary staff, I have been able to do a lot of research on pending legislation and learn more about how current legislation is applied by the courts,” said Sloan.

“I was honored when Senator Durbin once made a statement to the Judiciary Committee based on my research. I called my dad the second I left work! I love that I have the opportunity to research real issues that have an immediate impact on national policy.”
