State Government Fellow - CCLP

About Clear Path, Inc

Clear Path’s mission is to accelerate American innovation to reduce global energy emissions. To advance that mission, we develop cutting‑edge policy solutions on clean energy and industrial innovation. An entrepreneurial, strategic nonprofit, Clear Path collaborates with public and private sector stakeholders on innovations in nuclear energy, geothermal, hydropower, natural gas, energy storage, critical minerals, carbon capture, heavy industry, and agriculture to enable private‑sector deployment of critical technologies.

Started in 2014 by entrepreneur Jay Faison, Clear Path is a conservative energy advocacy organization that engages in the direct education of policymakers within Congress, the White House, Executive Agencies with energy and environmental jurisdiction, and regulators. Clear Path team members believe in small government, free markets, and American entrepreneurship. Those principles form the basis for how the team analyzes proposed energy, natural resources, and environmental policy.

We empower each other to accomplish our shared mission.

We believe the principles of limited government, free markets, and fiscal responsibility are essential to achieving our mission.

We empower teammates to visibly own and achieve goals.

We are open to new, complex ideas and test our assumptions to lead change and advance our mission.

We have a proactive desire to learn, grow, and improve ourselves, our ideas, and our mission in a thoughtful and focused way.

We agree that being trustworthy and believable is everything for building and maintaining influence.

Clear Path is looking to sponsor State Government Fellows as part of the Clear Path Conservative Leadership Program (CCLP). We are seeking early to mid‑career professionals interested in an educational opportunity to work temporarily in state government and gain hands‑on experience advancing clean energy, innovation and economic competitiveness. Fellows may be placed in state legislative offices, committees, governors’ offices or state agencies with jurisdiction over energy, natural resources, economic development, infrastructure or environmental policy.

Placements will depend on each fellow’s skill set and the needs of the host office. In this fellowship, participants will pursue educational and professional development opportunities that broaden their understanding of state policy making and strengthen their ability to contribute to energy and innovation policy. The program may include professional development opportunities and educational sessions facilitated by Clear Path. Participants must be willing to further their education within the energy sector by participating in these activities.

This is a temporary one‑year fellowship. Qualified fellows will be matched with a state government office that aligns with the program’s focus on conservative clean energy policy solutions. Positions will vary and may include responsibilities related to clean energy technology policy, legislative analysis, research, stakeholder engagement, data collection and communications. Fellows will receive a conditional offer pending a final interview with the host office.

Based on performance and available opportunities, fellows may be considered for continued employment within state government or Clear Path’s broader network of stakeholders after the fellowship, if mutually agreeable.
