your passport application, or by providing information on travel warnings provided by the State
Department.
Passports
My office is pleased to assist constituents with their passport needs.
However, please note that our does not process applications, but can
only help to expedite them. For those who require a
passport for the first time or need to replace or renew their
passport please visit the
U.S. Department of State Passport Services web site,
which contains answers to frequently asked questions regarding
passports, as well as updated fee information.
Travel Warnings
Before you travel abroad, please check to see if the State Department has issued
Travel Warnings
for the country you intend to visit and review the
Consular
Information Sheet published on your travel destination. The State Department also provides contacts for U.S.
embassies and consulates throughout the world at its website.
Additionally, the Centers for Disease
Control Travel Site offers advice on vaccine requirements, disease
outbreaks, food and water precautions, and health recommendations in certain geographic areas.
Other sources that offer important information about traveling abroad include the
Central Intelligence Agency Fact Book and

such as travel tips, foreign entry admissions, and information about
what to do in case of emergency.
