County residents will have access to Sen. Cynthia Lummis via Tyler Lindholm, her field representative and statewide policy adviser, on April 20 during remote office hours.
According to a release from Lummis’ office, Lindholm will be available to meet with constituents to hear ideas, comments and concerns about what is happening in the U.S. Senate and also to help anyone having trouble working with federal agencies.
“These remote office hours will bring my office closer to the people we are here to serve, and I hope they will foster good conversations and also provide necessary help to ensure that the people of Wyoming can better navigate the complexities of the federal government,” Lummis said in the release.
Lindholm told the News Letter Journal that he is hoping to help people who are having issues with the federal government.
“Those are the people I want to hear from. Then I can put Lummis’ staff and I on it. We can get to work addressing the issue,” Lindholm said. “Some of the biggest issues we see are agencies buried under paperwork and paperwork gets misplaced. Sometimes all it takes is a call from the senator’s office to help things move down the line.”
Getting out into the communities and being accessible to the public is important to Lummis, Lindholm said.
“We have never had a congressional office in Crook or Weston county, and I am pumped about the northeastern corner having two representatives with Lummis — Newcastle native Darrin Munoz and myself,” Lindholm said. “This will hopefully insure some wins for these communities.”
According to Lindholm, anyone wishing to visit with him should call 202-770-5538 to arrange a convenient time and location to meet.
“I will be in Weston County and the hope is that people will see the release and call the phone number to schedule a time,” he said. “I am hoping to keep things centralized in preferably Newcastle or Upton, but I will do what I can to do what I can to meet with everyone conveniently.”
