No.

Senator’s Official Personnel and Office Expense Account “the Senator’s Account”). This main account ranges from $3 million to $4.7 million and depends on state population, distance from Washington, DC, and the number of postal addresses in the state. This account is used for salaries and all other “official office expenses.” Economic Allocation Fund. Given in two three-year allotments for the purchase of IT and office equipment in all offices. Constituent Services Systems (CSS) funds. This funding is for CSS hardware, software purchases and maintenance. Home State Furniture and Furnishings. A lifetime allowance ranging from $52,000 to $73,000. Senator’s Allowance. A $5,000 allotment for personal office use. Other accounts allot things rather than money. Used for office rent, supplies, and related services. Senate offices may pay for “Officially related expenses” with excess campaign funds. Contact the Senate Ethics Committee for guidance. Senate budgets are prorated for partial years. Check with Senate Disbursing Office to confirm your budget allocations.

So they don't get money for interns? Then it's good to at least pay them something I guess. \

But wtf is this?

A lifetime allowance ranging from $52,000 to $73,000.

Do you get that for ever? Even if you just do 1 term??
