 In an effort to support scholarship in this area, the John W. Kluge Center at the Library of Congress invites qualified scholars to apply for a post-doctoral fellowship in the field of congressional policymaking, with a special focus on legislative negotiations.

Apply here. And check the fellowship requirements and eligibility information here.

The application deadline is currently set for June 15, but we will be revisiting this deadline as the COVID-19 situation develops.
