Help With Federal Agencies
One of the most important things I do as a U.S. Representative is help people with federal problems, like obtaining Social Security or Veterans benefits. Although I cannot override the decisions made by a federal agency, I can often intervene on a person's behalf to answer questions, find solutions, or just cut through the red tape.
