I am honored to represent you in Congress and am here to serve my constituents in any way possible. My office can be of assistance in a variety of different areas. We can help address problems with your Social Security, Medicare, or Veterans’ benefits, and other federal agencies. We can help if you are looking for Federal funding for your community project or to determine your eligibility for federal student aid to go to college. We are here to help you order a flag, schedule various tours of our nation’s capital, or secure a Presidential or Congressional greeting for special events. My full-time staff and I are ready and willing to be of service.
