U.S. Congressman Rick W. Allen (R-Ga-12) announced recently that his staff will be holding Community Office Hours across the 12th district during the month of June.
These office hours offer the opportunity for constituents to receive personal assistance from Congressman Allen’s office in their local communities. There will be no formal presentation nor will Congressman Allen be in attendance. The office hours are about one-on-one visits between staff and Georgia-12 constituents. Staff will be available to assist with a number of federal issues, including problems with federal agencies, such as Social Security, Veterans Affairs, Medicare, and others.
“Constituent service has always been a top priority of mine since being elected to represent Georgia’s 12th district in Congress,”said Congressman Allen.“My staff and I stand ready to help with issues experienced at the federal level and I am pleased to offer this opportunity for my office to provide constituents direct assistance closer to home.”
Congressman Allen has permanent offices located in Richmond, Toombs, Laurens, and Bulloch counties; therefore, community office hours will not be held in these counties. Please see below for a list of Community Office Hours dates, times and locations by county:
