Helping You

Rep. Braley helping veteransSometimes you need someone in your corner that’s got your back.  One of my favorite parts of my job is being able to step in as an advocate on behalf of individual Iowans who need help.

Many Iowans contact me seeking assistance to resolve any manner of problems.  My office can be particularly helpful if you need assistance navigating an issue with a federal agency.

Because Iowans spoke out when they needed a hand, we were able to secure full GI Bill educational benefits for hundreds of National Guard troops when they returned from Iraq, navigate an international diplomatic mess to allow an Iowa couple to adopt a Nigerian infant, and finally present distinguished service medals to a World War II veteran 66 years after he was awarded them.

Helping people is my job.  Let me know what I can do for you by contacting me.
