One of my biggest responsibilities as your representative in Congress, is to protect and help the seniors in my district. My office is always here to help seniors with their problems and to help navigate problems with the Social Security Administration, Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services and more.
Here are some ways we can help:
Our Nation’s Capital is a wonderful place to visit for vacation or business. If you are headed to Washington, D.C., my office is happy to arrange tours for you to some of the capital’s most well-known landmarks including the United States Capitol, the Library of Congress, and the White House. We may not be able to accommodate some requests due to the high volume of visitors during peak travel
My office is happy to arrange for a United States flag to be flown over the Capitol building and mailed to you with a certificate of authenticity. The certificate includes information specified by you, such as the date the flag was flown and/or the person or occasion it honors.
***Please note: The office cannot accommodate Washington, D.C. tours after September 30, 2018. Please see below for further details.***
Each semester and summer, my offices offer Congressional internships to qualified college students and recent graduates. These highly competitive internships provide an excellent opportunity to see the legislative process in action. Positions are always limited so applicants are encouraged to apply early.
