Residents in the 3rd District will have seven opportunities in July to take advantage of mobile office hours being offered by U.S. Rep. Lauren Boebert.
The program has been one of the more successful in Congress, with Boebert’s office citing assistance for 3,098 residents and the return of $6.36 million to constituents.
“If you are a citizen in Colorado’s 3rd Congressional District having issues with a federal agency, or you want your voice to be heard, please come to one of our mobile office hours, and a member of my team will be happy to assist you,” Boebert said.
Staff is available to help constituents with a variety of concerns, a press release reads. The concerns staff is prepared to assist constituents with include for those who aren’t getting answers from federal agencies such as veterans seeking to get the care they earned from the Veterans Administration, travelers that need expedited assistance to receive a passport on short notice, taxpayers being harassed by the IRS, and senior citizens having issues with the Social Security Administration or Medicare. Additionally, constituents are invited to come to the office hours to express their viewpoints on legislative issues or request special Congressional Commendations from the Congresswoman recognizing outstanding public achievements, the press release continues.
