Washington, Nov 7 -

While Central Ohioans are anticipating the upcoming historic inauguration of our 44th President of the United States, Barack Obama, requests for tickets to inaugural activities are pouring in.  U.S. Congressman Pat Tiberi would like to share the following information:

• Ticketing for all Inaugural Events is coordinated by the Inauguration Committee of President-Elect Barack Obama, in coordination with the Joint Congressional Committee on Inaugural Ceremonies [http://inaugural.senate.gov/cmte/].
• Currently, Congressman Tiberi's office has not received any details regarding these events or ticket availability from the Inaugural Committee.  Preliminary information indicates that details on ticket availability may not be available until January, 2009.  When the office receives additional information, Congressman Tiberi will make it available.
• Congressman Tiberi's office has been receiving ticket requests since February 2008 and will continue to collect them.  It is important to note again, Congressman Tiberi does not know when the office will receive information regarding Inaugural tickets for constituents wishing to attend events.
