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.

GovBenefits.gov

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.

Visit Washington DC

If you and your family are planning a visit to Washington, D.C., I may be able to provide you with V.I.P. Congressional Tour tickets.

These tours are an excellent way to see some of the most important sights of the nation's capital and all of them are at no charge to you. All tickets are provided to my constituents on a first-come, first-served basis. Due to the large number of visitors from the 28th District of California, many of the tickets available to me are reserved as far as six months in advance. Therefore, if you wish to obtain tickets, please request them as early as possible in order to maximize your chances.
