Sen. Joni Ernst announces mobile office dates

U.S. Sen. Joni Ernst announced Monday that her office will be holding traveling office hours in all 99 counties across Iowa at different times in the coming weeks to provide constituents assistance with casework.

Representatives from Ernst’s office will be available in every county throughout the state in late October and early November to assist Iowans with problems or questions about issues involving Social Security, veterans’ benefits, military affairs, passports, immigration issues and other federal programs.

“The number one priority for my office is to serve and assist Iowans every way we can, especially when it comes to helping folks with problems with federal services,” Ernst said. “When issues arise with federal agencies, my staff and I are here to help.
