Elie Wiesel Youth Leadership Congressional Fellowship Act of 2001

This bill would establish a summer fellowship program allowing each member of the House of Representatives to hire one additional student to work in their office during the month of July. Named after Nobel Peace Prize winner and Holocaust survivor Elie Wiesel, the program is designed to provide youth with direct experience in the legislative process and leadership development. To support participants, the House would be responsible for arranging and overseeing their housing in Washington, D.C., as well as providing transportation to and from the capital.
