As a Member of Congress, one of my most important responsibilities is to help constituents interact with the many agencies and offices of the federal government. My staff can help with matters involving government agencies and programs, including

* military awards and commendations;

* veterans' benefits;

* Social Security and Medicare benefits;

* immigration matters;

* federal worker injury compensation;

* small business concerns;

* tax matters and Internal Revenue Service;

* HUD housing;

* student loans;

* military academy applications

Although I cannot force an agency to expedite your case or act in your favor, the office can frequently intervene to facilitate the processes involved, encourage an agency to give your case consideration and sometimes advocate for a favorable outcome.

To begin the process, federal agencies require the Privacy Act release form. Please click here for a printable version of the Privacy Act release form and fill it out. The letter must be signed by the person directly affected or, in the case of USCIS, the person petitioning. Once we have the release, we can begin to work on your case. Please send this form to our Fullerton District Office, 305 N. Harbor Blvd., Suite 300, Fullerton, CA 92832.

My office is unable to offer legal advice or recommend an attorney. The rules of the House do not allow me to intervene in or influence the outcome of cases that are under the jurisdiction of any court. Although I cannot guarantee a particular outcome, my staff and I will do our best to help you receive a fair and timely response regarding your problem.
