Duckworth Hosts Mobile Office Hours in Beardstown and Jacksonville

 

[BEARDSTOWN, IL] – The Office of U.S. Senator Tammy Duckworth (D-IL) today hosted mobile office hours in Beardstown, Illinois, and Jacksonville, Illinois, where her constituent service representatives were on hand to assist Illinoisans with receiving Veterans Affairs, Social Security, Medicare and other federal benefits. Additional mobile office hours will take place in communities throughout the state over the coming months to offer constituents who may not be able to travel to one of the Senator’s offices around the state an opportunity to meet with her staff closer to their homes. Photos from today’s events can be found here.

“Reaching as many Illinoisans as possible and talking about their concerns is one of my top priorities as Senator, and making my team available in every corner of the state helps reach that goal,” Duckworth said. “We organized mobile office hours in Beardstown and Jacksonville to provide hardworking families with the opportunities to meet my staff, learn about federal resources available to them, cut through red tape and get the timely replies they deserve. My staff looks forward to continuing to host these events across Illinois in the days, weeks and months ahead.”

At Duckworth’s mobile office hours, constituents can also learn about the federal grant application process, service academy nominations and internship opportunities. Senator Duckworth has five offices across the state with locations in Chicago, Springfield, Carbondale, Rock Island and Belleville.
