Rep. Cole Says Goodbye to Summer Intern Rayne Austin

WASHINGTON D.C. -- U.S. Congressman Tom Cole (OK-4) bid farewell recently to summer intern Rayne Austin. Austin was chosen by Cole to intern in the Lawton, Oklahoma district office.

"I believe that internships are a great way for students to experience the inner-workings of government first-hand," Congressman Cole said. "Rayne has been an excellent intern and he has done our office a great service by diligently working with so much enthusiasm. He made an impact in Lawton this summer and I am confident he has a bright future ahead of him."
Austin was chosen to serve as an intern in Cole's Lawton district office. Interns assist staffers in a number of activities including researching grants, answering constituent concerns and helping with general office tasks.

Austin is the son of Dea Ann Butler of Ringling, Oklahoma. He graduated from Ringling high school in May and began as a freshman at Oklahoma State University in August.
