From a cnn.com story by Betsy Klein headlined “White House to begin paying interns”:

The White House is lifting a longtime barrier of entry to many young Americans as it announces it will pay its interns starting this fall

“President Biden and Vice President Harris are announcing the launch of the White House Internship Program and that, for the first time in history, White House interns will be paid. The first session will commence in Fall 2022,” a White House statement shared exclusively with CNN said.
