The House Labor & Industry Committee on a voice and roll-call vote unanimously reported House Resolution 228, introduced by Representative Cutler, which designates July 2025 as Intern Day in Pennsylvania.

Representative Cutler, the prime sponsor, told the committee the resolution is meant to “recognize the impacts of experiential learning on many of our young folks today and the value that that holds.” He said internships and shadowing opportunities can expose middle and high school students as well as college students to new career paths and “open doors” that might otherwise be closed.

Committee leadership offered no amendments and took no additional testimony. After a roll-call vote, the committee chair announced the resolution was “favorably reported as committed.” The committee did not attach implementing language or funding to the resolution; it is a formal recognition rather than a funding authorization.

The action now moves to the next stage of the legislative process for consideration by the full House.
