One of the most important duties I have as your representative in Congress is to help constituents resolve issues they’re having with federal agencies. Although I cannot override decisions made by a federal agency, I can often intervene on a person’s behalf to answer questions, find solutions, or just cut through the red tape.
If you are in need of immediate assistance, or if you would like to schedule an in-person appointment with a staff member, you can call my district office closest to you.
