WASHINGTON –Congressman Leonard Lance (NJ-07) today announced Tom Garvey of the Summit has completed a summer internship in his Capitol Hill Office. Garvey, 19, is currently a sophomore at Villanova University, where he is pursuing a double major in Political Science and the Honors Program.
“Tom is a bright and talented young man and I am proud of the hard-work and professionalism he contributed to my congressional office,” Lance said. “Internships in the Capitol are a great way for students to learn more about how our government works and serve the people of their community through public service.”

I am extremely grateful to Congressman Lance for allowing me the opportunity to serve the people of the great state of New Jersey. ”
