Sen. Whitehouse to Host Community Meeting in Johnston

JOHNSTON, RI—U.S. Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse is coming to Johnston to meet with constituents to hear their concerns and "help local residents navigate the red tape of government agencies."

Whitehouse will be at the Mohr Memorial Library from 3 to 5 p.m. on May 31.

According to a new release, Whitehouse said he is "is committed to ensuring federal agencies respond to Rhode Islanders' needs by answering questions, finding resources, and resolving problems residents face. Caseworkers can make inquiries about the status of a request or review steps that have been taken to ensure cases are being handled properly."

Residents seeking help with a specific matter should bring all appropriate contact information including a daytime phone number and email address, any relevant identification or tracking numbers (e.g. Social Security number or case number), and as much information about their request as possible, such as previous correspondence with the agency.
