Dear Friends,

Today, at my invitation, Hopewell businessman David Sandahl participated in a jobs forum at the White House. Mr. Sandahl - who established a local job creation task force and who sits on a task force providing oversight of Economic Recovery funding in New Jersey - brings a local, New Jersey perspective to the table, offering strategies to spur economic growth and job creation.

Telephone Town Hall next Tuesday, December 8

I will be hosting a live one-hour telephone town hall meeting on Tuesday, December 8 at 7:30 p.m. The telephone town hall operates like a large conference call among you, me, and other Central New Jersey residents. To join us, please sign up on my homepage, and you will receive a call Tuesday night. If you are unable to participate at that time, you will be able to hear a recording of the town hall on my website, and of course you can contact me at any time with any concerns or questions.

I look forward to updating you on my work representing you, and to discuss the economy, health care, retirement security, education, and any other issues of concern to you.

Cutting Through Insurance Company Red Tape

I recently helped an East Brunswick man who was having difficulty with his insurance company. Despite having comprehensive dental coverage, when he needed a crown the insurance company only agreed to pay for step one of the procedure, while denying coverage for the necessary second step.  This would be like paying for preparation for a surgery, but not the surgery itself. After I contacted his insurance company, it apologized and agreed to pay for the entire procedure.

As your representative in Congress, I sometimes can intervene on a person’s behalf to answer questions, obtain needed information, or cut through red tape, especially with federal agencies. Please do not hesitate to contact me if you need help. You can learn more at www.holt.house.gov by clicking on "I Need Assistance."

Sincerely,

RUSH HOLT
Member of Congress
