Congressman Berman speaks at the groundbreaking for the 405 freeway northbound carpool lane as Los Angeles Mayor Villaraigosa and California Governor Schwarzenegger look on. The groundbreaking is the culmination of years of work by Rep. Berman, who obtained significant federal funding for this project, which is critical to relieving congestion on the 405.
How can I help?
If you are a constituent of the 28th Congressional District of California, our office can assist you with matters involving Federal agencies. We also provide for visitors to Washington, DC, and can arrange to have a flag flown for you over the U.S. Capitol building.
If you are in need of government assistance, but are unsure where to go for information on how to apply, Govbenefits.gov may be the answer. It reduces the amount of research needed to take advantage of government benefits programs by providing information only on those programs most likely to benefit each individual.
Constituents complete a confidential questionnaire and Govebenefits.gov matches their request with the appropriate benefit programs, and provides application information. It contains a wide variety of information on such topics as Medicaid/Medicare, small business loans, scholarships, and disaster relief, to name a few.
Many of you have contacted me to share your thoughts on health insurance reform. On March 21st, I voted for the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, H.R. 3590, which passed the House of Representatives by a vote of 219 – 212 and was sent to President Obama to be signed into law. I also voted for the Health and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010, which makes important improvements to the health bill and includes key investments in education. This historic package of legislation will make drastically-needed reforms to our nation's broken health care system, expanding coverage to an additional 32 million Americans.
