If I mail something to Rep. Royce's office, will it get there?
Mail delivery to Rep. Royce's Orange, CA office is, and always has been, uninterrupted. The anthrax attacks in the fall of 2001 disrupted mail for many federal buildings and agencies in Washington, D.C. especially in areas where contaminated letters were found. As a result of the need for increased security around the Capitol Building, mail delivery to Rep. Royce's Washington, D.C. office is delayed. All mail is irradiated in an offsite screening facility. Letters bound for all congressional offices in Washington, D.C. take about 3-4 weeks for delivery. Any type of package or larger delivery is permitted on a very limited basis, even from companies like FedEx or UPS. Please keep this delay in mind if you mail something to Rep. Royce's Washington, D.C. office.
