Please Note: As your Congressman, I do not have the authority to intervene in matters involving a state agency. Some of these matters include but are not limited to: food stamps, Medicaid, child support payments, and insurance regulation. These matters fall under the jurisdiction of the Commonwealth of Kentucky. Therefore, your state officials will have to provide you with assistance for these matters. If you need the information to identify and contact your state officials, my office would be happy to provide you with that information.

As your Congressman, I do not have jurisdiction in matters pertaining to civil or criminal cases. This can include but is not limited to: family court matters such as child custody, child support, and divorce issues. Also, I cannot give legal advice or intervene in legal disputes, whether they be in civil or criminal court. If you find yourself needing legal assistance, you should contact the Kentucky Bar Association at (502) 564-3795.
