Indeed, support of TLIP is truly an investment in the future. In fact, TLIPers have gone on to become leaders and high achievers in both the public and private,” said Richard Ponder, Johnson & Johnson’s director of state government affairs. Johnson & Johnson, one of the world’s premier manufacturers of pharmaceuticals and medical supplies has been a sponsor of TLIP since 2000.
Sponsored by Senator Ellis, TLIP began in 1990. It is administered by the Mickey Leland Center on World Hunger and Peace at Texas Southern University. Since its inception, TLIP has grown to be the largest legislative internship program in the state. TLIP provides opportunities for undergraduate and graduate students attending Texas colleges and universities to serve as interns in the Texas Legislature, in various state agencies, and in local government. Many TLIPers have continued with careers in public service. Notably, two former TLIPers are now serving in the Texas House of Representatives; Rep. Ana Hernandez and Rep. Armando Walle.
“Johnson & Johnson has my sincere gratitude for its consistent support of TLIP. In 1990, the first TLIP class started with just five interns. Last session, we had our largest class yet with over 50 interns. I am very proud that over 350 students have been given the opportunity to make a difference in Texas politics and public policy. It is contributions by corporate citizens like Johnson & Johnson that have enabled TLIP to grow and thrive as it has” said Senator Ellis.
