Tenth District Congressman Patrick McHenry’s staff will hold office hours in Ellenboro on Thursday, May 12th from 9:00 – 5:30 in the basement meeting and functions room at Ellenboro Town Hall – 163 Depot Street.
Brett Keeter, McHenry’s Regional Director for Rutherford County, will be available to meet with constituents who have issues with federal agencies including Social Security, Veterans affairs, immigration, etc. He will also be there to listen to any concerns that constituents have with federal policy or pending legislation before Congress. Keeter will then relay these concerns to Congressman McHenry.
Rutherford County is split between the Tenth and the Eleventh Congressional Districts, with all areas in north and east Rutherford including the towns of Ellenboro, Bostic, Lake Lure and Chimney Rock as well as the communities of Caroleen, Henrietta, Cliffside, Sandy Mush, Avondale, Alexander Mills and Ruth falling in the Tenth District. The eastern half of Forest City is also in the Tenth District.
“During my campaign, I pledged to hold monthly office hours in every county of my district,” Congressman McHenry stated. “Now that all three of my district offices are open, I am eager to get my staff out in the field so that constituents do not have to travel far to meet with them.”
McHenry maintains district offices in Shelby, Hickory and Spruce Pine.
