Washington, United States FiscalNote Full time

**About the Position**
- This position will work with other members of the floor and committee reporting team to ensure that CQ’s legislative data and live House and Senate floor and committee markup coverage is thorough and immediately relevant. This position is within the Editorial department.

**About the Legislative Action Team**

**About You**
- This position requires exceptional accuracy and attention to detail, the ability to work under pressure and meet firm deadlines, and an understanding of the legislative process. Floor Action Reporters cover House and Senate action gavel-to-gavel and must be available to work from the press gallery office spaces within the U.S. Capitol building for work hours largely decided by the congressional schedule.

**What To Expect In This Position**:

- Track every action on the House or Senate floor as it happens, providing complete, timely coverage and precise descriptions of both the policy and legislative procedure involved at the time, within set deadlines and in accordance with CQ Roll Call and Associated Press editorial style standards.
- Backstop and/or collaborate with team members and others in the newsroom to provide detailed and informative analysis of congressional committee actions.
- Quickly and accurately collect and process legislative data, text bill information and other related information as assigned by your editor.
- Master a handful of operational tools, procedures and software systems to maintain CQ’s legislative data and develop a broad understanding of CQ Roll Call databases and legislative tracking products.
- Balance long hours and an unpredictable congressional schedule while juggling multiple assignments. Report breaking news from the House and Senate floors and promptly respond to - and act upon
- newsroom questions or requests for floor information.
- Work with editors and other reporters to develop reporting, writing and general news-gathering skills; cultivate relationships with congressional and government agency sources for journalistic and document-sourcing purposes.
- In time, contribute ideas about product priorities, data quality and how to improve operations within CQ’s legislative research and analysis department.
- Perform other duties as assigned and to be a team player.

**What Sets You Apart**:

- At least one year of research or writing experience, preferably in a political or policy-focused capacity; equivalent experience on Capitol Hill; or equivalent experience in journalism, whether as a researcher, reporter or copy editor.
- Bachelor’s degree or equivalent experience.
- Strong interest in policy, politics and/or procedure.
- The ability to read and summarize drafts of legislation and amendments, drawing relevant context from the U.S. Code and relevant, reliable sources.
- Ability to write objectively about legislative proposals.
- Experience with large amounts of data entry, proofing and related research.
- Strong attention to detail and good organizational abilities.
- The ability to work a schedule that largely mirrors the House and Senate daily/weekly hours of operation.
- The ability to meet strict deadlines.
- Familiarity with congressional operations and the policy-making process.
- The ability to develop sources, gather information and process content consistently with CQ Roll Call’s editorial style and standards.
