Rep. Bruce Westerman (AR-04)

Serving friends and neighbors across the Fourth District of Arkansas in the halls of Congress through drafting and voting on legislation is a great honor, and certainly a major role that Members of Congress play as elected officials. However, there is an equally important role to play while elected to such a position: taking care of the needs of the people represented back home in their everyday lives, through casework and other needed assistance. 

The impacts of Federal issues such as Social Security matters, Veterans’ affairs, passports, and more don’t take a break for the legislative process in Washington D.C. This is why there are offices spanning the Fourth District staffed with caseworkers who stand ready to help with any questions or tackle any issues constituents may face. No matter what your federal issue may be, these caseworkers are experts in their area, and all constituents are encouraged to seek them out for assistance.

Throughout the months of January and February, our district offices will be hosting casework-specific office hours directly related to Veterans’ affairs, Social Security, Medicare, the IRS, citizenship and immigration services, and passports. Every week, representatives will be visiting each district office, including a location in Texarkana, to help constituents directly with their specific needs as they relate to the issue areas previously mentioned. You can find information on the dates and times of these locations at Westerman.house.gov.

I cannot express enough that representing the Fourth District of Arkansas – friends, family, and neighbors – is the honor of a lifetime. Because it truly is. Taking care of constituents is a responsibility not taken lightly, and it is encouraging to know that representatives across the Fourth District are well-equipped to serve and assist in any way possible.
