Office of Rep. Marie Gluesenkamp Perez to host mobile office hours in Tenino

The office of Third Congressional District Rep. Marie Gluesenkamp Perez, D-Skamania, will host an upcoming mobile office hours event in Tenino as part of a series of events to assist constituents with federal agencies, including Veterans Affairs (VA), the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) and the U.S. State Department.

The office hours are scheduled for Wednesday, Oct. 9, from noon to 4 p.m. at Tenino City Hall, located at 149 Hodgden St. South.

“My bipartisan team is working each day to directly assist folks across Southwest Washington with federal agencies — whether it’s recovering Social Security checks, tax refunds or veterans benefits you’re owed,” Gluesenkamp Perez said in a statement. “Our services shouldn’t be any less accessible because of where you live — so I’ve made it my priority to bring mobile office hours to every county across Southwest Washington. I appreciate everyone who has taken the time to stop by, and I’ll keep working to ensure we can reach more of our rural communities.”

According to Gluesenkamp Perez, her office has recovered more than $2 million from government agencies for 1,437 constituents, which includes more than $182,000 from the VA and $852,000 from the IRS.

Those unable to make the mobile office hours are invited to call at 360-695-6292, visit gluesenkampperez.house.gov/contact or stop by in person at the Gluesenkamp Perez’s offices in Vancouver or Kelso.
