MIT’s Grad Student Council (GSC) Legislative Action represents graduate student interests in Washington DC. They work with the National Assoc. of Graduate-Professional Students to lobby the government for issues including creating a federal tax-exempt status for stipends, removing the H-1B visa quota for advanced-degree holders, and promoting open access to federally-funded research. Members will get to meet with members of Congress and government officials.
