Help With A Federal Agency

One of my most important duties as a member of Congress is to help constituents navigate federal agencies.

If you are a resident of Washington’s 10th Congressional District and are experiencing issues with a federal agency, my office is here to help. 

While I cannot override federal agency decisions, I can inquire on your behalf to:  

  • check the status of your case,  
  • request expedited service,  
  • explore possible solutions,  
  • and help navigate bureaucratic challenges.  

My staff and I are committed to ensuring you receive a fair and timely response to your concern, though we cannot guarantee the outcome of your case.
