Robby, John & Gary -

This has come up before - and I worry that we are excluding low-income,
smart hard-working college students from getting an experience interning on
the campaign.  I would be happy to help fundraise for some type of summer
stipend for next summer so we can offer this opportunity to young people
with little to very modest means.

Possible?

The hypocrisy of Hillary Clinton’s unpaid campaign internships

Hillary Clinton is offering young people an incredible opportunity — to
work for her campaign for . . . nothing. Nada. Zero.

On Sunday, her campaign tweeted: “Interning at #Hillary2016 HQ in NYC: Free
coffee, great views, the chance to make history.”

We’re fine with it: As we’ve long noted, unpaid internships let kids gain
the experience, skills and contacts to land a paying gig — or to realize
the industry’s not for them.

But Clinton is on record to the contrary. “Businesses have taken advantage
of unpaid internships to an extent that it is blocking the opportunities
for young people to move on into paid employment,” she lectured at UCLA in
2013. “More businesses need to move their so-called interns to employees.”

One more problem: Clinton’s also been grandstanding about how kids can’t
pay for college. Her $350 billion plan envisions students working 10 (paid)
hours a week to make college “available to everyone willing to work for it.”

Hey, this is a woman who thinks the rules for everyone else — whether on
how charities should work, or on the proper handling of classified
information — don’t apply to her.

Why be surprised that she won’t even honor her own views on fair pay?
