U.S. Rep. Marie Gluesenkamp Perez, D-Skamania, announced in a news release that she will hold her 24th mobile office hours in Thurston County.
The congresswoman’s team will be available from 11:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. on Friday, Sept. 26, at the Tenino City Hall council chambers at 149 Hodgden St. S., Tenino.
Residents of Washington’s Third Congressional District will be able to walk in to get assistance with federal agencies such as Veterans Affairs, the Internal Revenue Service and and State Department, according to the release.
Gluesenkamp Perez has already recovered more than $9.6 million for more than 2,700 constituents owed to them by federal agencies, including more than $542,000 from the VA, $1.8 million from the Social Security Administration and $3.1 million from the IRS, the release stated.
“My bipartisan team is working each day to directly assist folks across Southwest Washington with federal agencies — whether it’s recovering Social Security checks, tax refunds or veterans benefits you’re owed,” Gluesenkamp Perez said. “Our services shouldn’t be any less accessible because of where you live — so I’ve made it my priority to bring mobile office hours to every county across Southwest Washington. I appreciate everyone who has taken the time to stop by, and I’ll keep working to ensure we can reach more of our rural communities.”
Gluesenkamp Perez has held mobile office hours in every county in Washington’s Third District in which she doesn’t have a district office.
